Ingredients

45 mins
6 (but we do for 4 as so good)
  1. 6 Slicesbread
  2. 150 GrDeveined Tailless Prawns - fresh if possible but frozen works
  3. 1egg
  4. 1Chilli
  5. 2.5 CmFresh Ginger (or 2 Tsp puree)
  6. 1Glove Garlic
  7. 1 DashLight Soy Sauce
  8. 1 DashSesame Seed Oil
  9. Rice Flour - add so mixture not to wet (will need a little more if frozen prawns)
  10. Veg or Sunflower Oil for Frying

Cooking Instructions

45 mins
  1. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 6

    Serve with a little honey or sweet chilli sauce.
