Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 g raw prawns (shrimp), peeled and deveined
- 4 slices white bread slices
- 1 large egg white
- 2 pieces spring onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 clove garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 50 g sesame seeds
- 500 ml vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
Begin by chopping the prawns finely, or process them in a food processor until it forms a coarse paste.
In a mixing bowl, combine the prawn paste, egg white, chopped spring onion, grated ginger, minced garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well until thoroughly combined.
Lay the white bread slices on a cutting board. Spread an even layer of the prawn mixture on top of each bread slice.
Sprinkle the sesame seeds generously on top of the prawn-topped bread slices, pressing down lightly to ensure they stick to the prawn mixture.
Cut each slice of bread into four triangles.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat until it's hot (around 180°C/350°F).
Gently slide a few prawn toast triangles into the hot oil, prawn-side down. Fry them for about 2-3 minutes, then flip and fry for another 1-2 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the toast from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
Repeat with the remaining triangles, ensuring the oil temperature is maintained for even cooking.
Serve the sesame prawn toasts hot, accompanied by your choice of dipping sauce or garnish with additional chopped spring onions.
