I wanted to make a picture of my coriander sauce for the shrimp cocktail but did not see the mosquitoe net and... bumped into it. Part of the sauce was splashed on the net and the room floor.
I called the reception but it is Xmas and was told the cleaning personnel finished work earlier today. Ok, no problem, we asked for a cleaning piece of cloth and some floor soap, and... cleaned the mess ourselves.
The shrimp sauce was good, though.
Ingredients:
The juice of 2 lemons (or 4 small limes)
2 tomatoes
A piece of onion
A handfull of coriander
Valentina sauce (if you like it hot)
Ketchup (if you like it sweeter)
Or both valentina sauce AND ketchup
As many shrimp as you want (the small pre-cooked, pre-peeled ones)
Crackers (or tortilla chips or whatever you like more to accompany a shrimp cocktail)
1 or 2 avocados
Some salt (optional)
Again, we are at the beach, on vacation, we do not want the hassle of cooking difficult dishes. So, we bought this pre-cooked, pre-peeled shrimp that is ready for a cocktail.
The difficult part is the coriander sauce.
Directions:
Blend the lemon (or lime) juice, the coriander, the tomatoes and the onion with some water in the mixer.
Serve the shrimp in a large cup, add the coriander sauce.
Chop the avocado in very small cubes, and add to the shrimp. Do this at the end, because avocado oxidizes very fast.
Put 2 or 3 shrimp on a cracker and add some valentina sauce (or ketchup, or both). You can add some salt. Enjoy!
This is the picture responsible for the mosquitoe net splashing. Well, ok, I am the one to blame, not the sauce!
