Crispy Seafood Toast

These seafood toast are SO simple to prepare and are a very tasty finger food for party. Each toast has a layer of generous seafood spread and a layer of crisp bread sandwich. You can use any bread you love but I do recommend thinner bread as it absorb less oil when we deep fry it. 
Today, I am using Borges's Grapeseed oil for frying. Do you know Grapeseed oil are very suitable for deep frying as well as normal daily cooking? It's smoking point can be up to 210-245ÂșC. They are a healthier choice of oil as it is Cholesterol Free, contains vitamin E & A, acid linoleic essential fats, etc.  In addition to this smoking point, Grapeseed oil has other positive attributes in relation to cooking. It has a clean, light taste that can be described as “nutty”.

  3. Spread a generous layer of seafood paste on the bread and sprinkle the white sesame seed on it. Repeat the spreading till you use up all the paste.
  4. Heat Borges Grapeseed oil in a pot. Use a leftover bread stick to test whether the oil is ready for deep frying. If there is bubbles on the bread, you may start frying the seafood toast.
  5. Slowly place the seafood toast with sesame down to fry first for 1-2 mins. Turn over to brown the bread layer. Yummy crispy seafood toasts are ready to serve! 

It still taste good even it is cold. Great snack for kids to bring to school too! I will continue to use these healthy oil for my daily cooking for my family. What about you? :)
