Cut off the edges of the white bread slices.

Cut the bread into triangles or desired shapes.

Chop 300g of prawns into small pieces with a knife.

Smash the chopped prawns with a knife to achieve a fine, slightly pasty texture.

Add the chopped prawns to a mixing bowl.

Add the white of 1 egg to the bowl with the prawns.

Add 5-6 cloves of crushed garlic and chopped green onion greens to the mixture.

Add a splash of fish sauce for extra flavor.

Use a hand blender to mix the ingredients until they reach a slightly pasty texture, leaving some chunks for bite.

Spread the prawn mixture onto the prepared bread slices, covering as much as possible.

Drizzle sesame seeds over the prawn mixture on each slice, ensuring they are well covered.

Heat oil in a wok or kadhai until hot.

Place the prawn toast slices in the hot oil, prawn side down, being careful not to stack them on top of each other.

Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Remove the fried prawn toast and place on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

If desired, air fry the prawn toast by buttering the underside of the toast, adding the prawn mixture, and spraying with oil, then air fry for about 10 minutes.

Serve hot, garnished with chopped spring onion greens.
