The ebi fry sando brings together three textures that sell the dish at first glance: soft bread, tender shrimp and extra-crispy panko.
Instructions
-
Assemble the sandwiches
Slice the cabbage very finely and pat it dry if it's wet. Spread the bread with a thin layer of butter, then prepare the Kewpie and tonkatsu sauce separately.
-
Fry the ebi fry ⏱ 3 min 30 sec
Put the Ebi Fry straight from the freezer into oil at 180°C, in small batches, until the panko is deep golden and the center piping hot.
-
Drain properly
Move the shrimp to a rack and let the oil drain off. Don't cover them or set them on paper while they're very hot.
-
Plate up
Layer cabbage, Kewpie, three ebi fry each and tonkatsu sauce between the bread slices. Press very lightly, without crushing the crust.
-
Slice and serve
Cut each sandwich in two with a serrated knife and serve immediately, while the panko is crispy and the bread soft.
Good to know
The oil needs to come back to 180°C between batches. Otherwise the crust soaks up grease. The butter forms a thin barrier that protects the bread from the sauce. The product contains crustaceans and gluten, and Kewpie contains egg.
Frequently asked questions
What is an ebi fry sando?
It is a Japanese sandwich with panko shrimp between slices of soft white bread. It brings together three textures, soft bread, tender shrimp and extra-crispy panko, with cabbage and Kewpie.
Why does the oil need to be 180°C between batches?
So the crust does not soak up grease. Fry the Ebi Fry straight from frozen in small batches and let the oil come back to 180°C before the next batch.
How do I stop the bread from going soggy?
Spread the slices with a thin layer of softened butter, about 20 g for 8 slices. The butter forms a barrier that protects the bread from the tonkatsu sauce and the Kewpie.
