Shrimp toasts Pinterest

Thai shrimp toasts recipe, crispy, spicy and flavorful, my favorite starter in Thai restaurants. 

Served with sweet chili sauce, these toasts are delicious and really quick and easy to make!

  • 20 toasts
  • Easy
  • 30 minutes

Recipe :

Ingredients :

1/2 pound (250 g.) raw shrimps

1 tbsp cilantro or parsley leaves

3 garlic cloves

1 inch fresh ginger root grated or 1 tsp powdered ginger

1/2 tsp powdered sugar

1 tsp pepper

1 pinch of salt

1 tsp Sriracha or to the taste

1 tsp Fish sauce (Nam Pla or Nam Prik)

1 tbsp sesame oil

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 egg white

6 slices white bread

Some frying oil

Prepare shrimp mixture: 

In the bowl of an electric mixer, add all ingredients and mix until finely ground and completely mixed

Taste mixture to check seasoning: quickly microwave a small amount of shrimp mixture, taste and adjust seasoning to your taste

Into a bowl, add shrimp mixture and chill a few minutes, up to an hour

Prepare toasts:

Remove the crust of the toasts and toast them slightly, just until light brown

Halve bread slices in triangles

Spread shrimp mixture onto toasts in as thick a layer as bread slices

Frying toasts: 

Into a frying pan, heat oil and fry toasts about 2-3 minutes on both sides, starting with the shrimp side down.

Set aside on a dish covered with paper towel

Serve with a small bowl of Sweet Thai Chili Sauce, or teriyaki sauce with a bit of Sriracha, or your favorite sauce for that matter!

Enjoy!
