Thai-Inspired Crispy Toast
Ingredients
• Watcharee’s Thai Sweet Chili with Ginger, Lemongrass Chili, or Spicy Chili for dipping
• 1.5 cups ground turkey, pork, or tofu
• 5 slices of bread (whole wheat or white), cut into quarters
• 2–3 cloves fresh garlic, finely minced
• 1 egg (separated into egg white and egg yolk)
• 1-2 tsp water (for mixing with egg yolk)
• 1 tbsp Thai soy sauce or Japanese soy sauce

6. Final Toasting: Mist the tops with oil and air fry for 6–8 minutes, depending on the size of the toast and the thickness of the turkey mixture. The toast should be golden and crispy.
7. Serve: Serve immediately with a Watcharee’s dipping sauce of your choice. Enjoy!
