- 1 cup mayonnaise Whole-egg
- 1 teaspoon wasabi paste
- 2 teaspoons Japanese soy sauce
- 25 prawns smalls Raw
- 1 loaf white bread Stale Unsliced
- 3 nori shts, Dried Seaweed
- 1 cup sesame seeds

- Mix the mayonnaise, wasabi paste and soy in a small bowl, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Peel the prawns leaving the tails intact. Gently pull out the dark vein from each prawn back starting at the head end.
- Cut the crust off the bread and cut the bread into twenty-five 3 cm (1 1/4 inch) cubes. With a sharp knife, make an incision in the top ot the bread three-quarters of the way through. Gently ease a prawn into the cut in each bread cube, leaving the tail sticking out. Cut 25 strips from the Nori measuring 1 cm (1/2 inch) X 15 cm (6 inch). Wrap a strip around the outside of each bread cube and secure with a toothpick.
- Measure the sesame seeds into a bowl. Put the eggs in a small bowl and dip the bread in, the sesame seeds.
- Fill a wok or a deep heavy-based saucepan one third full of oil and heat until a cube of bread browns in 15 seconds. Cook the prepared cubes in batches for 1-2 minutes, or until the bread is golden and the prawns cooked through. Drain on crumpled paper towels, remove the toothpicks and season with salt. Serve topped with a teaspoon of the mayonnaise.
