Got a hankering for some, so I'm into the kitchen to make them.

Funnily enough, I can't eat bread as in a sandwich, but I can eat it when
it's been deep fried with prawns on top!!


Going to do the Neil Perry recipe this time.........

I find this odd, and somewhat akin to a child claiming he or she "can't" eat
spinach unless it is smothered with cheese.

Only some question because I like this recipe (saved): if recipe ask
for corn flour, why the prawn mix is almost white instead of yellow?

Why sesam seeds are like powder? It seams to me like brown sugar, but
I know that in pictures you can't see very well.
I ask you all these things because I would like to do (I have some
shrimps in the freezer) and I want to be sure.
BTW you have made a good work!

I saw shrimp toast demonstrated on the Today show recently, and was
surprised at the method of cooking! I thought it would be a sloppy
mess, but actually looked pretty damn good!

I saw that, too. Tried it just as shown and wasn't all that
impressed. Luckily I ran out of 'toast' before I ran out of the
shrimp mixture. Made balls out of the rest, and bingo! That's
the way we'll do them next time.

The jicama adds the perfect amount of crunch for my tastes, without
interfering with the shrimp flavor or overall texture.

Hey- thanks for your response! I'm glad to hear you tried it and to
hear of your brilliant solution to resolve the issue- saves me some
work

Yep, I've cooked up leftover prawn mix in various ways as well.

What was wrong with the recipe?
Do you have it to hand?

Jicama????? For the second batch I'm going to cook, I've added finely
chopped water chestnuts for a bit of crunch. Chinese prawn toast--- water
chestnuts, a match made in heaven :-)

Yes, the guy on the Today show used jicama as he said he thought water
chestnuts were too much work!

I did some with the water chestnuts, and they were good.

I looked up jicama too.........

Anyways, for the water chestnuts (and for a lot of other things) I use

I was wondering whether you could eat what you are cooking and am
glad to hear you can eat at least some of it.

Thanks Jean. I've been eating a *lot* of Chinese Dim Sum, mainly the
steamed stuff, dumplings and wontons etc. Also Prawn Gyoza, steamed then
pan fried.

But I still long to wrap my laughing gear around a nice tender steak..
Maybe one day this year.

Thanks Jean :-)

I'm doing some eye fillet (tenderloin) steak for the SO's dinner
tonight, I'm starting to think it might be worth the 1 hour of pain and
discomfort just to chew on a nice tender piece of red meat again!! :-)

I think is a very tasty recipe and good for appetizer. I wonder if it
is possible cook them in the oven instead of frying. What do you
think? Have you tried?

Yes. It doesn't work because instead of being a crispy packet it all falls
apart in a soggy fashion.

If you have tried I trust you and I don't try!!
