Easy Prawn Toast

Pressing sesame seeds into the prawn paste before frying gives this classic starter its crunchy crust — fried paste-side down first so it seals properly.

Ingredients

300graw shrimp, minced
6 sliceswhite bread, crusts removed
1/2 cupsesame seeds

Instructions

1

Blend the shrimp into a smooth, sticky paste with the seasoning.

2

It should hold together well enough to spread thickly without sliding off the bread.

3

Spread the paste generously over the bread right to the edges, then press the sesame seeds firmly into the surface so they stay put during frying.

4

Shallow-fry paste-side down first, so the seeds seal against the hot oil, for about 2 minutes until deep golden, then flip and crisp the bread side for another 2 minutes.
