I was looking to add a bit of spice to our Vietnamese salad bowls. These shrimp make a great addition to the dish, and would probably be great on a cold salad or with rice. Ingredients:
2 1/2 tablespoons sesame oil |
3 dried whole chili peppers, broken into pieces |
2 garlic cloves, crushed |
450 g shrimp, peeled & deveined |
1 green onion, chopped |
garlic powder (optional) |
salt (optional) |
pepper (optional) |
Directions:
1. Put the sesame oil, dried chilli’s & crushed garlic in a small bowl and let it sit for 30 minutes.
2. While you are waiting, if you haven’t done so already, peel & devein the shrimp.
3. Rinse shrimp in cold water and pat dry with a paper towel.
4. After the oil has sat for 30 minutes, heat the oil in a frying pan or wok.
5. Add green onions and shrimp to pan. Add a pinch of powdered garlic, salt & pepper if desired.
6. Cook shrimp 3-4 minutes over medium heat or until their bodies touch their tails and turn pink.
7. Remove from heat & serve immediately.
