Thai Shrimp Toast

mikus's Note:

This is best made with dry breads or you can let bread sit overnight before using. To make smaller pieces for a party use cocktail bread. The Thai sweet chili sauce can be found in Asian markets, but if it is too difficult to find you can use sweet and sour sauce as a substitute.

Delicious! I made this without the shrimp because I was too lazy to go back to the store. If allergies don't preclude it, I recommend using peanut instead of vegetable oil. I'll be making it again & again. It is wonderful.
