Soak the slices of bread in the sweet wine or sweetened milk until the bread has absorbed the liquid. Dip the slices of bread into the beaten egg and fry them in the Spanish extra virgin olive oil, turning to brown both sides. Sprinkle with sugar. As an alternative, dip them into honey that has been thinned by heating it gently. Serve hot or cold.
