Preparation

Step 1

Pound the prawns to a pulp in a pestle and mortar.

Step 2

Mix the prawns with one of the egg whites and 1 tbsp of the cornflour. Add the sugar and a pinch of salt and then stir in the coriander.

Step 3

Mix the remaining egg white with the remaining cornflour (in a separate pot).

Step 4

Remove the crusts from the bread and cut each slice into 8 triangles. Brush the top of each piece with the egg white and cornflour mixture and then add 1 teaspoon of the prawn mixture. Smooth the top.

Step 5

Heat enough oil for deep-frying in a wok, until it reaches 180-190 degrees (hot enough to fry a cube of bread in 30 seconds). Fry the toasts prawn-side down for 2 minutes and then turn and fry for another 2 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the prawn toasts with a slotted spoon, drain on kitchen paper and then serve and enjoy!
