How To Make shrimp toast

  • 1
    Peel shrimp. If shrimp is frozen, don't thaw; peel under running cold water. Make a shallow cut lenghtwise, down back of each shrimp; wash out sand vein. Cut shrimp lengthwise into halves. You may buy shrimp that is already deveined to save time.
  • 2
    Mix shrimp, onions, flour, water, egg, cornstarch, salt, sugar, sesame oil and pepper.
  • 3
    Heat vegetable oil (about 1 1/2 inches) in wok at 350 degrees or heavy bottom pan that is deep enough to hold the oil.
  • 4
    Remove crusts from bread; cut each slice into 4 squares. Place 1 or 2 shrimp with sauce on each bread square.
  • 5
    Fry 5 squares at a time until golden brown, turning frequently (about every 2 minutes). Drain on paper towel and serve.
