Jump to Recipe

This easy air fryer prawn toast recipe is the second new Chinese recipe this week to celebrate Chinese New Year on Saturday.   I found the recipe on the Cook Simply food blog.   

Years ago I made the traditional fried version and really fancied trying to cook them in the air fryer instead.   I'm glad I did...they turn out lighter and healthier than the fried version, the toast turns out lovely and crispy and the prawn topping is full of delicious flavour!

Tip

  • This easy air fryer prawn toast recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.

How to make this Easy Air Fryer Prawn Toast

Ingredients

  • 300g raw prawns, peeled, cleaned and finely chopped
  • 5g ginger, peeled and finely grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 tsp light soy sauce
  • 1 egg white
  • 4 slices white bread (I use thick sliced toastie bread)
  • 50g sesame seeds
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil (or spray oil)

To serve (optional):

  • sweet chilli sauce
  • soy sauce

Instructions

  1. Put the finely chopped prawns into a bowl, then add the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and egg white. Stir well to combine the ingredients.
  2. Spoon a quarter of the prawn mixture onto each slice of bread. Spread to ensure you get all the mixture to the edge of each slice.
  3. Put the sesame seeds onto a place, take one of the slices of bread and place it prawn mixture side facing down so that the sesame seeds will stick to it. Repeat with the three other slices.
  4. Preheat the air fryer for 7 minutes at 200C. Using a knife, carefully slice the pieces of bread into four triangles.
  5. Carefully place the triangles into the air fryer. Make sure they're well-spaced apart - you may need to cook the toasts in 2 batches.
  6. Brush or spray vegetable oil over the top each prawn toast, then air fry at 190C for 8 minutes. Check after 5 minutes to ensure the toasts aren’t burning. Depending on your model of air fryer, it's worth keeping an eye on it. If you like them crispy, 8 minutes should be fine!
  7. Serve either on their own or with a dipping sauce of your choice.
