Ingredients
- 250 grams Prawn Or shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2-3 tbsp Sesame seeds Raw or toasted

- 1 Egg white
- 2-3 Spring onion Cut thin slices
- 1 tsp Garlic Grated
- Cooking oil spray
Seasonings and Sauces
- 2 tsp Soy sauce
- 1 tsp Salt
- ½ tsp White pepper
- 2 tsp Sesame oil
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
Instructions
- Use a sharp knife and chop the prawns until it forms a paste. ( You can use food processor instead. )
- Mix it with egg white, grated garlic, spring onions, soy sauce, cornstarch and sesame oil. Season it with salt and pepper to taste.
- Trim off the crusts of the bread and slice each piece into triangles or squares on your preference. ( You can leave the crust for extra texture. ) Preheat the air fryer to 200C/400F.
- Divide the prawn fillings into 12 portions. Spread the prawn mixture evenly on the bread. Sprinkle sesame seeds over it.
- Place the prawn toasts in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
- Spray cooking oil over them. Air fry the toasts for 5-7 minutes or until golden and crispy. Enjoy with your favourite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Use stale bread, which is manageable and easy to spread the prawn fillings on. Soft bread can easily get mushy while spreading.
- You can also try with another type of bread, such as wholemeal, French baguette, sourdough, or focaccia bread.
- Air frying time can vary according to the bread's thickness and amount of fillings. Adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- Baking Option: Instead of frying the prawn toast in air fryer, you can bake it in the oven. Place them over the lined baking tray and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 10-12 minutes or until crispy and golden.
- Dipping sauce: Chinese sweet and sour sauce, Thai sweet chilli sauce, soy sauce with a splash of rice vinegar and chilli oil, Sriracha sauce, spicy mayo, etc.
