Prawn Bites | Slimming & Weight Watchers Friendly
Add some extra flavour to your fakeaway feast with our Chinese-inspired Prawn Bites. A lighter take on prawn toast, we’ve used low-calorie tortilla wraps and skipped the deep fryer to make these mouthfuls soft and moreish. Luckily they’re only 38 calories each!

Equipment
- large non-stick frying pan approx. 28cm diameter
- fish slice
- hand blender or food processor
Ingredients
- 145 g raw peeled prawns, well drained
- 1 garlic clove, peeled
- 1 cm piece of root ginger, peeled
- 1 tsp dark soy sauce
- 1 medium egg white
- 4 spring onions, trimmed and chopped
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 2 low-calorie tortilla wraps, approx. 18cm diameter
- 20 g sesame seeds
- 4 tsp ready-made reduced-sugar sweet chilli sauce
Instructions
- Place the prawns, garlic, ginger, soy sauce and egg white in a food processor, or use a stick blender, to blitz into a smooth paste. Stir in the spring onions.
- Place half of the sesame oil in a large non-stick frying pan, spread around evenly using a piece of kitchen paper, and place over a medium heat. When the pan is hot, add one tortilla wrap and fry for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden on the underside.
- Using the back of a dessert spoon, spread half of the prawn paste evenly over the top of the tortilla wrap, leaving a 1cm gap around the edge. Sprinkle over half of the sesame seeds and press down lightly.
- Turn the tortilla wrap over using a fish slice and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the prawn paste is cooked, pink and slightly puffy.
- Remove the prawn tortilla from the pan using a fish slice and cut into eight triangles. Repeat this process to cook the second prawn tortilla, drizzle the triangles with sweet chilli sauce and serve immediately.

Notes
Tip: Use two dessert spoons to help you scrape the prawn paste onto the tortilla wrap and spread it out evenly with the back of one of the spoons.
