Daddy's Shrimp Toast

“Slices of bread are topped with shrimp and crab mixed with onion, garlic, celery, and water chestnuts, then pan fried and served with a soy sauce, garlic powder, and sesame oil sauce. Some of the filling ingredients can be optional, i.e. water chestnuts, celery, etc. Great topped with chopped roasted peanuts, sesame seeds, or parsley.”

I've never made this with crab... but I did happen to have some King Crab knuckles in my freezer, so I tried it. I am at a loss to understand why people baked this rather than quick deep-fried it, because deep-frying made such a difference in flavor. To bake shrimp toast isn't really shrimp toast at all. And eliminating all the essential fatty acids in one's diet isn't good for the body, especially the brain and nervous system. And people are still using margarine for the sake of "less fat" when it is the equivalent of plastic? It hasn't lengthened anyone's life in my profession, just made it more miserable.

I was really excited to try this recipe. Don't know what went wrong, but we did not like this. Baked instead of fried, but I cannot imagine that would affect it SO much. Overall, t was very bland for us, and would not attempt again.

Delicious! Had only king crab so I added a little mayo and grated cheddar to help bind it together. Put on butter brushed toasted french bread. Baked in the oven instead of frying. YUMM!

This was very popular at our playoff party. I only made a few changes, lightly toasted the bread before adding the shrimp so that it won't get soggy, didn't used the yellow onion, but increased the green onions and baked the toast for 5-7 minutes in a 350 degree oven instead of frying to cut down the fat. Add some red peper flakes for a little bit of heat.

I made this recipe for my husband & friends. It was delicious. We enjoy the shrimp toast with lemon wedges and the sauce with the recipe. Recommended.
