Ingredients

  • 1 lb Shrimp - peeled, deveined, tail off
  • ½ Cup Imitation Crab
  • ½ Yellow Onion - chopped
  • 1 Green Onion - sliced
  • 1 Egg - beaten
  • 1 ½ Tbsp. Fresh Parsley - chopped
  • 1 tsp. Sesame Oil
  • ½ tsp. Kosher Salt
  • ¼ tsp. Black Pepper
  • ½ tsp. Soy Sauce
  • 1 tsp. Minced Garlic
  • 2 Cups Oil for Frying
  • 5 Slices Thick White Bread

Instructions

  • Place the shrimp, imitation crab, yellow and green onions, garlic, egg, parsley, sesame oil, salt, pepper, and soy sauce in a food processor or blender and give it a few good pulses.
  • Set the mixture aside and begin cutting the crust off of the bread and then cut each slice diagonally making two triangles out of each slice.
  • Heat about 2 inches of cooking oil over medium-high heat in an Electric Deep Fryer Oven or large Cast Iron Skillet.
  • Once the oil is hot, spread one side of a triangle with the shrimp paste mixture and place that side down in the oil. Fry that side for about a minute or until golden brown. Flip and repeat on the back side using a slotted spoon or spatula.
  • Carefully remove the shrimp toast from the oil and place it on a cooling rack set above a baking sheet.
  • Serve your shrimp toast hot and drizzled with your favorite spicy sauce or with a dipping sauce on the side.

Notes

  • Place the shrimp toast on a wired cooling rack! Don't place these on paper towels. There is too much oil, and you'll end up with super greasy shrimp toast that won't be very crispy.
  • If you don't have a blender, you can use a hand-powered or electric food processor to make the shrimp paste.
