News Mother Community - Shrimp Toast - Do you toast the new wing

while not almost unknown in comparison with most other popular snacks fried Party, these toasts shrimp are easy to make, and every bit as delicious, addictive, and those Buffalo wings or jalapeno poppers. Well, all this is about to change.

No one goes to a friend's house to watch the game, and is expected to see a plate of these treats crispy on one side, soft and appetizing, on top of the other side, but shortly after making these, and spread the word, and I'm sure it will be just a matter of time.

talk about the differences, because we apply the raw shrimp mixture, it's not like you can dip your finger in to taste it. So, check the seasoning, especially salt, you may want to fry small pieces (such as during the production of meat), and adjust from there. He added a small pinch of salt, but thanks to soy, anchovies, fish sauce, you may not need any.

are much better served this warm from the cold, so maybe fry them in batches, and / or keep warm in the oven. And yes, if you do not do shrimp, any raw seafood and other work. By the way, I have it on good authority that this is wonderful served with a cold beer, and for this reason alone, I hope to give this a try soon. Enjoy!

makes about 16 toasts shrimp:

1/2 pound raw shrimp, peeled and deveined

1/4 cup diced water chestnuts

1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves

1/2 cup green onions, sliced ​​finely

3 cloves of garlic, crushed
