PRAWN TOAST RECIPE

Steps:

• Whizz the prawns, garlic, ginger, egg white, spring onions and light soy sauce to a paste in a food processor. Chill the prawn paste in the refrigerator for at least 20 mins
• Toast the bread on one side, then lightly brush the untoasted side with the sesame oil
• Spread the prawn paste evenly over the toasted side of the bread and sprinkle with sesame seeds
• Place the toasts on an oven rack and cook in a preheated oven, 240ºC/475ºF/ gas mark 9, for about 10 mins or until the prawn paste is cooked and the toasts are crisp and browned. If using bread slices, cut in half diagonally. Serve with some sweet chilli sauce for dipping, if liked.

CHINESE PRAWN TOAST

Steps:

• Add prawns, water chestnuts, green onions, ginger root, garlic, salt, and sugar to a food processor.
• Whisk egg white, cornstarch, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil together in a small bowl and drizzle over the top of the shrimp mixture. Pulse until smooth, but not pureed, into a prawn mousse.
• Trim crusts off the bread and equally spread the prawn mousse all the way to the edge of each bread slice. Cut diagonally into 12 halves, and lightly sprinkle with sesame seeds
• Add oil to a 10-inch skillet so that it's about 1/2 inch deep, and heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) over medium-high heat. Add 4 of the toasts, prawn-side down, not crowding the pan.
• Fry until toast is golden brown, 30 to 45 seconds; flip and cook bread side for another 15 seconds. The toasts cook very quickly, so keep your eye on them. Repeat for next batch.
• Transfer to a paper towel-lined rack and serve warm with sweet chili sauce.

Steps:

• Combine the raw prawns, ginger, garlic, egg white, scallions, light soy sauce, salt, and white pepper in a mini food processor. Blend until it becomes a paste.
• Slice the white bread with 2 straight cuts across each piece from corner to corner for 12 triangles of bread. Spread the above paste evenly across one side of each prawn toast triangle.
• Place the sesame seeds onto a plate. Using the side of the triangles with the paste, gently dip until you get a nice even covering of seeds on one side. Then heat your wok. Add oil. Place the first triangle paste-side into the oil. If it sizzles, your wok is ready.
• Add the triangles into the oil, paste side down, and cook. Turn as needed until the bread is golden and the paste is well cooked. Line a plate with a kitchen roll and place the sesame prawn toast on it. Serve with the chilli jam dip while hot.

SHRIMP TOAST RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C). Set a wire rack inside a baking sheet and place nearby.
• In a food processor, combine the shrimp, egg whites, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, sambal, garlic, ginger, salt, and scallion whites and pulse until smooth.
• Trim the crusts off the bread, then cut diagonally into triangles.
• Spread 2 tablespoons of the shrimp paste evenly over each triangle of bread. Sprinkle the sesame seeds over the shrimp paste.
• Add the shrimp toasts, 3 at a time, to the hot oil, shrimp side down. Fry until the shrimp turns pink and the sesame seeds are light golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip the toast over and fry on the other side until the bread is golden, about 1 minute. Transfer to the wire rack and let drain for 1 minute.
• Garnish the shrimp toast with the scallion greens and serve with soy sauce for dipping.
• Enjoy!

SESAME PRAWN TOAST

Steps:

• Put the prawns, garlic, ginger, egg white, sugar and soy in a food processor and blitz to a paste. Stir in the spring onion. Scrape into a bowl, cover and chill for 30 mins.
• Brush one side of each piece of bread with sesame oil. Spread the prawn mixture on top, taking it right to the edges of the bread. Brush the beaten egg carefully over the top and sides and sprinkle liberally with sesame seeds so they stick all over.
• Heat 2-3cm oil in a sauté pan or deep frying pan until hot, and cook each piece of bread (it's easier to cook one at a time), unspread-side down for 1½ mins, then carefully turn over and cook for 1-2 mins on the prawn side or until the sesame seeds are golden and the prawn paste cooked through. Cut each piece into four triangles. Serve with soy sauce (or a sweet & sour sauce) for dipping, if you like.
