Cooking time: 12 mins
Serves: 12

Recipe Ingredients
125g tiger prawns, peeled;
225g water chestnuts, drained and finely chopped;
4 spring onions, chopped;
3 cm piece of fresh ginger, peeled and chopped;
1 egg white;
1 tsp cornflour;
6 slices of white bread;
soy sauce;
groundnut oil;
sesame seeds for sprinkling.

 
Recipe Method
Put the chopped chestnuts, spring onions, ginger, prawns, egg white, cornflour and soy sauce in a blender, season and then blend into a paste.

Spread the prawn mixture on the bread and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Press down gently. Cut the crusts off and slice each piece of bread into four triangles.

In a pan heat the oil and cook the toasts in batches, about 1 minute on each side. Drain on kitchen paper to remove excess oil before serving.
