Thoroughly chop the shrimp until it forms into a thick paste. Alternatively, you can also dice the shrimp in a food processor.

step 3
Place a heaping portion of the shrimp mixture onto a piece of white bread, making sure to cover the bread from edge to edge. Sprinkle generously with sesame seeds, then cut each slice diagonally into four pieces.
step 4
Heat cooking oil in a shallow saucepan until it is very hot for frying. Fry the pieces of bread starting with the shrimp side facing down for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp paste is cooked and the edges are golden brown. Flip each piece over and fry for an additional minute.
