Chinese Prawns On Toast Food

SESAME PRAWN TOAST RECIPE | CHINESE TAKEAWAY

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

Steps:

• If you're going the traditional route and using pork fat, add the pork fat to a food processor and process until smooth. Then add the shrimp, cilantro, scallions, ginger, sesame oil, sugar, salt, cornstarch and egg white. Process until smooth.
• Divide the mixture among 4 slices of sandwich bread, spreading it evenly out to the ends. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, and lightly press the sesame seeds into the shrimp mixture. Cut each slice into quarters on a diagonal to create little triangles.
• In a large nonstick or cast iron skillet, heat ⅛ inch of oil until shimmering. Fry the triangles in the skillet, shrimp-side down first, until golden--about 2-3 minutes.
• Use a spatula to carefully turn them over, and fry the other side for about 1 minute. Transfer to paper towels to drain. Serve immediately!

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.
