2. Add a little water to make the mixture smooth and light. Spread over one side of the bread, smoothing and rounding at the edges.

3. Heat deep oil and slide in the prawn toast, filled sides downwards, several pieces at a time to cook until golden. Drain well and serve with a dip of lightly soy sauce or Vietnamese sauce dip.
