Searching for prawn toast recipes or quick party snacks for your all-in-one kitchen machine? This starter delivers on every level. The TM7 blends raw king prawns with sesame oil, egg and seasoning into a smooth, even purée that adheres perfectly to the bread, while the integrated emulsifying function whips up a silky sesame mayonnaise with Dijon mustard and vinegar that never splits. A sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds adds nutty crunch before the toasts hit the pan. Whether you are hosting a drinks party, planning a festive buffet or simply craving an Asian-inspired treat on a Friday night, this recipe gives you crispy, golden bites with a fiery Sriracha kick and a cooling, creamy dip — all prepared faster than delivery could arrive.
Preparation tips
- Pat the king prawns thoroughly dry with kitchen paper before blending; excess moisture makes the purée too wet, causing it to slide off the bread during frying and preventing that signature golden, crispy crust.
- Toast the sesame seeds in a dry frying pan until lightly golden before sprinkling them over the prawn paste; this deepens their nutty flavour and guarantees they adhere beautifully to the surface while frying.
- Make the sesame mayonnaise ahead and keep it refrigerated in an airtight container; its flavour improves after a few hours, and it also doubles as a delicious dip for crudités or grilled prawn skewers at your party.
Recipe variations
- For a milder, kid-friendly version, simply omit the Sriracha sauce from the prawn mixture and serve it alongside as an optional dip for adults; the little ones still enjoy the crispy sesame toast with creamy mayonnaise.
- For a gluten-free variation, replace the standard white bread slices with a firm gluten-free loaf or rice paper; the prawn purée clings just as well and the toasts fry up equally golden and crunchy with their sesame coating.
