Instructions

Prepare mixture of meat topping:

In a small bowl, separate one egg and reserve the white. (You will not need the yolk.) In a large bowl, mix minced pork, minced shrimp, sugar, sesame oil, corn flour, three magic herbs, egg white, oyster sauce and soybean sauce.

Prepare breads:

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Cut each slice of bread into four square pieces and bake the bread slices for five minutes.

Mix the 2 remaining eggs in a bowl until they have a smooth texture for dipping. Top each slice of cut bread with the meat mixture, and spread it all over the bread. Dip the bread topped with meat mixture into the eggs to coat it before deep-frying it.

In a deep-frying pan or large stainless-steel saucepan, add 2-3 cups vegetable oil but fill the pan no more than halfway. Heat to 300 degrees. For accuracy, use a digital thermometer. Carefully add the breads to the pan and deep fry for four to five minutes on each side, only turning once, until golden brown. Place each piece on a plate and top with chopped green onion. Serve with ‘Ar-Jad’ sauce.

Ar-Jad Sauce:

Combine the sugar, vinegar, water and salt together, and cook the mixture using low heat, until it melts. Remove from the heat and set it aside until it’s cold. Add the sliced shallots, diced cucumber and chili to the vinaigrette sauce.
