1 egg to 1 cup liquid to 1 cup dried/stale bread. In the video:

5 large eggs
5 cups milk (you can substitute cream for a richer pudding)
1/4 cup brandy
1/2 cup sugar (you can add up to 1.5 cups depending on how sweet you like it).
The zests from 2 - 3 oranges
Pinch of salt
1 tablespoon vanilla
You can also add candied or dried fruits and/or nuts to suit your taste.
5 cups stale/dried bread

1. Zest oranges and add to sugar, then combine with 2 cups of milk and bring to the simmer. Turn off the heat and let sit until cool.

2. In a bowl whisk together five eggs, the salt, and any additional sugar you would like to use. Whisk in the orange flavored milk, the remaining 3 cups of milk, and all the flavorings. Strain to remove any solids.

3. In a bread tin lay out your dried bread (and fruits or nuts, if using) and then pour the liquid mixture over it. Let it sit overnight to fully rehydrate the bread.

4. Bake in a slow oven, 160C/320F for one hour. Let cool and refrigerate. Serve as is or with a sweet sauce or syrup. Alternatively, slice the pudding and fry in hot oil or ghee for a few minutes on either side to develop a crust (this is my favorite way to eat bread pudding as the outside is crispy and the inside warm and creamy), in this way, it becomes French Toast.

And apologies for the sound. Apparently, I didn't do a good job. If you have any suggestions, please post them in the comments.
