Instructions:

1. Prepare the mixture:
In a bowl, combine the chopped prawns, onion, spring onion, garlic, chickpea (or rice) flour, egg, coriander, salt, white pepper, red chili powder, amchur powder, herbs, chili flakes, and cheese. Mix everything well into a thick batter.

2. Prepare the toast:
Lightly brush one side of each bread slice with ghee or olive oil. Spread a generous layer of the prawn mixture on top. Sprinkle a little extra shredded cheese, chili flakes, and mixed herbs for flavor.

3. Airfry:
Place the slices in a preheated air fryer at 180°C (356°F) for 6 to 8 minutes or until the prawns are cooked and the top turns golden and slightly crisp.

4. Serve hot:
Serve immediately with mint-coriander chutney or garlic yogurt dip.
