Savory Thai Toast

The Patti Myint famous Thai Toast recipe with Shrimp and (optional) Crab on French bread.

Khanom Phang Tawd is similar to shrimp toast from Chinese pop food. This particular recipe is something I took from my mom’s repertoire of signature items. She served a version of this at her restaurant for over 40 years. I love the “use-your-resources” approach with the soft, pillowy, French white bread and how the egg batter plays with the senses, almost presenting like a brunch-eseque French toast but…it’s packed with savory delight. I recall hers having crab meat as well, my budget will stick to this take for now 😉. For something so simple, it’s pretty grand! Enjoy.
