Hot oil can easily splatter and cause burns, slide the toasts along the side of the pot when placing them in.

Pour 500 ml of cooking oil into a deep pot and heat, put the assembled shrimp toasts into the pot, fry over medium-low heat, flip halfway with tongs until both sides turn even golden brown, then remove and drain on a wire rack.

The oil temperature must not be too high, otherwise the bread surface will burn instantly while the shrimp paste inside remains raw.
