Sesame Shrimp Toast

✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 8 oz Shrimp
• 4 slices White bread
• 1 Egg white
• 2 tbsp Sesame seeds
• 1 Scallion

Steps

1. Peel and devein the shrimp, then mince into a sticky paste with a heavy knife. A few small chunks are fine and add texture.
2. Mix the minced shrimp with the egg white, minced scallion, a teaspoon of soy sauce, and a pinch of white pepper until tacky.
3. Trim the crusts off the bread slices. Spread the shrimp paste thickly onto one side of each slice, all the way to the edges.
4. Press the paste side firmly into the sesame seeds so they coat densely.
5. Heat 1/4 inch of neutral oil in a skillet over medium heat. It{Q}s ready when a sesame seed dropped in sizzles immediately.
6. Beginner tip: fry in batches and don’t crowd the pan. Crowding drops the oil temperature and the toasts go greasy instead of crisp. Fry paste-side down 3 to 4 minutes until deep golden, then flip for 1 minute.
7. Drain on a wire rack, cut each into triangles, and serve hot with sweet chili sauce.
