Sesame Prawn Toasts

Sesame Prawn Toasts
A bag of frozen prawns is such a handy thing to have in the freezer. They defrost in minutes when you need to pull together impromptu dishes like this lighter take on the Chinese takeaway favourite, prawn toasts. Simply mix finely chopped prawns with mayonnaise and a little sesame oil, pile onto bread, sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake in the oven until lightly golden and crunchy.
