shrimp toast...simply a pain...

once again...i save frying for extreme and worthwhile moments...this is one...

1/2 lb. raw shrimp (shelled)
2 eggs
2 green onions
2 tbsp. butter, melted and cooled
2 tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. grated fresh ginger
1 tsp. grated garlic
Chopped water chestnuts or celery

i like to add minced water chestnuts...but then i think they're wonderful everywhere...
they don't over-power the shrimp...



Chop all ingredients in blender, then add water chestnuts, perhaps 5. Use 8 to 10 slices homemade style bread, crusts removed. Spread mixture on slices. Cut each slice into 4 triangles and fry in hot fat at 350 degrees. Turn once and cook about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes on shrimp side, a few seconds on bread side. Fry only a few at a time. Drain and serve at once, or freeze. To reheat frozen toasts heat in oven @ 375 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes.

hot chinese mustard...
sweet and sour...
coconut pineapple...
