Ingredients

6 slice day-old white bread

400 gram medium uncooked prawns, peeled, deveined

2 green onions, finely chopped

2 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger

1 egg white

1 teaspoon cornflour

2 teaspoon light soy sauce

1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper

1/3 cup sesame seeds

vegetable oil, to deep-fry

Method

1.Cut crusts from bread. Process prawns, onion, ginger, egg white, cornflour, soy sauce and pepper in a food processor until smooth.

2.Spread prawn mixture evenly onto one side of bread slices. Gently push prawn mixture down with the flat of your hand so it ‘sticks’ to the bread. Cut each slice into 4 triangles. Place sesame seeds on a plate. Press bread, prawn-side down, in sesame seeds to coat.

3.Heat oil in a wok or large heavy-based saucepan over moderately high heat (oil is ready when a cube of bread crisps quickly without absorbing oil). Deep-fry toast in batches, prawn-side down, 1 minute. Turn and cook for 30 seconds more, or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve.

Prawn mixture can keep in the freezer for up to three months.
