A Chinese dim sum recipe: small toasts topped with a tasty prawn paste and a coating of sesame seeds.
What you need
- 350 g peeled cooked prawns
- 1 egg
- 2 salad onions, trimmed and finely chopped
- 2 tsp finely chopped root ginger
- 3 tsp light soy sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 8 slices (thin sliced) white bread, crusts removed
- 50 g sesame seeds to coat
- vegetable oil for frying
Method
Place prawns, salt, egg, salad onions, ginger, soy sauce and sesame oil in a food processor or blender. Process to a paste.
Thickly spread the prawn puree evenly over the bread slices.
Spread the sesame seeds on a plate. In turn, press the spread sides of the bread onto them, to give an even coating.
Heat a frying pan or wok filled with 2 1/2 cm oil. Fry the toasts, sesame side down for about 1 min or until crisp and golden.
Turn over and fry the other side until golden. Drain on kitchen paper.
Cut each slice into even strips or triangles. Serve.
