Sai do si (西多士) are Hong Kong-style French toast: two slices of white bread with peanut butter in between, dipped in egg and fried, topped with a pat of butter and golden syrup.
The name literally means Western toast. In Hong Kong, the most popular version is called silk toast, after the way the butter melts into it. It is on every cha chaan teng menu, for breakfast and as a snack.
Do not cut off the crust, but press the edges down firmly. If you don't, the peanut butter will leak out into the oil and you will get a burnt edge. Pat the bread briefly after frying so that the butter melts on it instead of sliding off.
