Ingredients
FOR THE SHRIMP
- 1 lb of shrimp
- 3 garlic cloves, whole, smashed
- 3 slices of fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon of rice wine
- 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of honey
- 1 teaspoon of sesame oil
- You can also add whatever spices you want. It's all about options. Sesame seeds would be nice, but I don't got none.
FOR THE POTATO "NOODLES"
- 1 red potato
- 2 tablespoons of Cream Cheese (or sour cream, or creme fraiche)
- Dill seasoning
- chopped red cabbage
- 1 1/5 tablespoon fresh squeeze lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon sugar
I kinda made this up depending on what i had left from my last trip to the grocery store. It combines a variety of ingredients from various recipes that I remember reading.
For the Shrimp
- Combine all of the ingredients in a sealable bag and mix thoroughly.
- Leave to marinate for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat your grill to high.
- Oil the grill. Remove the shrimp from the marinade and place straight on the grill.
- Cook for 2 minutes per side until it turns pink.
- Put the rest of the marinade in a saucepan and bring to a simmer.
- Reduce by half and drizzle over the grilled shrimp. (although I didn't do that in my picture)
For the potato "noodles"
- Peel and julienne potato. Rince thoroughly in cold water.
- Blanche in boiling water with salt for about 10 minutes.
- The potatoes should still be half crunchy (In my photo, I overdid them and they were too soft. Next time I'll pay more attention.)
- Shock in ice water and drain.
- Warm cream cheese until soft and mix in dill seasoning.
- Mix with potato "noodles".
- To serve,arrange chopped red cabbage at the bottom of dish.
- Mix fresh lemon juice with sugar and drizzle onto cabbage.
- Place potato "noodles" on top.
- Arrange shrimp on potato "noodles." (I like peas too, so I added some in the middle.)
fantastic colours and presentation! I want some pls...:D
