Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Raw prawns, peeled and deveined
- 1 large Egg white
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Low sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 0.25 teaspoon White pepper
- 4 slices Whole wheat bread slices
- 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds
- for frying Vegetable oil
Instructions
Place the prawns, egg white, garlic, ginger, low sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and white pepper in a food processor.
Process the ingredients until they form a smooth paste.
Spread an even layer of the prawn mixture on each slice of bread, ensuring the mixture covers the entire surface.
Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over the prawn-covered side of the bread slices, pressing gently so the seeds adhere well.
In a deep frying pan, pour enough vegetable oil to submerge the toasts halfway and heat it over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the bread slices, prawn-side down, in the oil.
Fry for 2-3 minutes or until the bottom is golden and crispy, then flip and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Remove the prawn toasts from the oil and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
Cut each slice into triangles or quarters and serve hot.
