Boom Boom Shrimp Toast
Boom Boom Shrimp Toast
Directions
- For the chili sauce, place 3 oz. water, rice vinegar and sugar into a small pot and bring to a boil, over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to medium and add garlic and sambal and stir together.
- In a small bowl whisk together the cornstarch and remaining 1 oz. of water to make a slurry for thickening the sauce. Pour cornstarch slurry into pot and stir together. Simmer for 1 minute, until sauce thickens and resembles a thin glaze (sauce will thicken further as it cools). Remove from heat and set aside.
- For the shrimp paste add shrimp, tarragon, parsley, garlic, ground ginger, water chestnuts, egg white, sesame oil, salt, white pepper, and sesame seeds. Pulse 6 to 8 times. Scrape down sides of the bowl and blend for about 30 seconds. Until a coarse paste has formed. Refrigerate for service.
- Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons of mixture onto each triangle of bread and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Repeat until all bread squares have been smeared with shrimp paste. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Pour chili oil into a large pan and place over medium heat. Carefully place half of the triangles of bread, shrimp-side down, and fry for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip toasts over and fry for an additional 2 minutes.
- Remove the toasts from the pan and drain on cooling rack or paper towels, before transferring to a platter and serving with sweet-chili sauce.
