Sainsburys Plant Pioneers No Prawn Toast

Sainsbury's own plant based Plant Pioneers brand is quite competitive and some of the items in the range can be quite good like the pork belly.
They have now taken the pork belly to the next level by pairing it with bao buns.
This post will be about the No Prawn toasts which were surprisingly good.
According to the label, it was White sliced bread topped with jackfruit, king oyster mushroom and sesame seeds.
The presentation was definitely convincing and not hard to achieve with the mock prawn paste covered in sesames seed.
There was one odd slice in the batch which clearly belonged to another piece of prawn toast as it was a different colour.
After putting it in the halogen oven, the toasts were nice and crispy but they were a bit oily so I should have blotted the oil with some tissue paper.
Despite the oil, the taste and texture was on the right track.
It strangely tasted like prawn with a bounce from the mushrooms.
Overall not bad, so you can think of it like eating a real prawn toast with a stingy layer of prawn paste with enough to give it a taste of prawns where you can't complain there are no prawns in it.
Adding lemon juice to it made it flawless.
Rating: 4/5.











Plant Pioneers no pork belly bao buns:

The pork belly is basically the same as the no pork belly bites launched for Christmas but the size is bigger paired with a bun.
