Chinese Prawn Toast - Moist and Perfect
My Sister's starter for her Birthday
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Chop the prawns, garlic, ginger, onions and chilli and stick the lot in a food processor with the egg, soy and sesame oil. Pulse a few times until you have a lumpy paste (NOT a puree) - add some flour and stir in if too wet. Do not keep pulse or you end up with a runny mess.
- 2
Spread the mixture over the bread equally, then Cut across corner to corner to make triangles. I also trim off the crusts (but this is just a waste lol).
- 3
Put sesame seeds into a bowl put prawn mixture side down, into the seeds to stick. Give a little push down to make sure plenty stick.
- 4
Heat up the oil and carefully place them in the hot oil, sesame side down. Leave them for about 3 minutes or until golden brown, before carefully flipping them over in the oil for another minute or so to brown the other side. I do about 3 - 4 triangles at a time. Drain on Kitchen paper.
- 5
Transfer to a baking sheet in a warm oven if need to keep hot for a few minutes before serving but the faster the better.
- 6
Serve with a little honey or sweet chilli sauce.

Shrimp Toast Shrimp Toast
I seem to be on a shrimpy roll here. Lol! To be honest, I never like shrimps until I learned how to prepare them properly. Most eateries will cook the shrimps with shells on. Having shells on means deveining is not done and will lead to "seafoody" smell, which is a major turn off for me. Seafood needs to be fresh and be prepped properly to take away the "seafoody" smell. Ever since I had learned the trick of prepping shrimps properly, I began falling in love with them.This is also the very 1st recipe I had made with shrimps. I had made this shrimp toast quite some time ago and didn't really have the chance to show you lovely people. I guess now is the time. Cos one of my goals for 2019 is to revitalize some of my old recipes. I didn't process the shrimps until it becomes a mousse. Instead, I chopped them up into fine coarse with a cleaver. That way, I get bites of shrimps chunks. You can of cos choose whichever kinda texture as desired.The trick in making a great shrimp toast is to use a very soft white sandwich bread. Brioche or any eggy rich bread will not work. I find that Japanese white bread produces the best results. As you can see from the photos, I dunked my shrimp toast with a mixture of white and black sesame seeds. The sesame seeds do add another layer of aromatics. Usually, these toasts are being cut into triangles, but I find that cutting them in squares make a better plating. Don't you agree? Anyway, I hope you will give this recipe a try. Daniel Lim -

Gourmet Avocado Toast Gourmet Avocado Toast
If there was one thing I learned during my time in Australia, it's that the food scene there is second to none. You never really hear of people talking about the Australian food scene but let me tell you if you ever find yourself in the land down under, you are in for a culinary treat! The variety of different cuisines they have is staggering and their coffee is the best you will find anywhere in the world!And speaking of coffee, this recipe for the common Millennial breakfast food of Avocado Toast was inspired by the frequent morning visits to the different coffee houses in Sydney and Melbourne. It seemed that every one of them served up their own different version of "Smashed Avo on Toast" and for this recipe, I've combined elements from my favourites. ryandvy
