Method

Heat fryer to 160 to 180C.
For teriyaki syrup:
In a small saucepan dissolve sugar into soya sauce and water and boil until you reach a syrup consistency.
Mix chopped prawns with coriander, ginger, garlic, chilli, lemongrass and full cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Fry off a small piece of the mix to test seasoning. Adjust if necessary. Cut bread into rounds approximately 5cm in width. Toast lightly on one side. Take about 2 to 3 tbsp of the mix and, using a tablespoon, form a dome shape over the toast round, toasted side down. Form 12 prawn toast portions. Drop prawn toasts into fryer and fry for approximately 5 minutes. Cooking time will depend on the size of the prawn toast. Remove toasts and drain on paper towel. In a small bowl toss the mango julienne with bean sprouts, chilli, chilli oil and coriander. Season with salt and pepper. On four small plates, arrange a small mound of the salad. Garnish with the julienne spring onion. Drizzle the plate with teriyaki syrup and arrange 3 prawn toasts on top on each plate and serve.
