Main Ingredients:
200g raw prawns (peeled and deveined)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 small red chili, deseeded and finely chopped
1 teaspoon ginger, minced
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 egg white
4 slices white bread (crusts removed)
Sesame seeds for topping
Oil for frying
Instructions
Blend Prawn Mixture: In a food processor, blend prawns, garlic, chili, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, pepper, and egg white until a thick paste forms.
Prepare Toasts: Spread prawn mixture on one side of each bread slice. Top with sesame seeds and cut each slice into quarters.
Fry Toasts: Fry prawn-side down in hot oil for 2–3 minutes until golden, then flip and fry bread side for another 1–2 minutes until crisp. Drain on paper towels.
Serve: Enjoy hot with sweet chili sauce or soy dipping sauce.
Notes
To bake instead of fry, brush both sides lightly with oil and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway.
You can also add spring onion or cilantro to the prawn mixture for added flavor.
