This sounds a bit retro – indeed, it is retro – but I enjoy both making and eating it, and often find it just the perfect thing to accompany creamy dips. It’s best to use bought sliced bread to make it as it’s easier to cut. People always eat more of this than you think they will, so make plenty!

1–2 slices of ready-sliced bread, white or wholemeal, for each person

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F), gas mark 6.

Toast the bread, then lay the pieces of toast flat on a board and, using a sharp knife and a sawing motion, cut the toast in half horizontally, so you end up with two very thin slices, each toasted on one side.

Place the toast halves, uncooked side uppermost, on a baking sheet and bake for about 7–10 minutes, until they are crisp and brown all over, and curling up at the edges. Leave to cool. Store in an airtight container or foil for up to one week.
