I got this from Spoonfuls of Germany by Nadia Hassani. The use of brandy in this recipe is intriguing. Ingredients:
1 lb shrimp, very small to tiny, peeled and cleaned |
1/4 cup light mayonnaise |
2 teaspoons ketchup |
2 teaspoons brandy |
salt & freshly cracked pepper |
1 tablespoon fresh dill, very finely chopped |
6 medium white mushrooms, thinly sliced |
4 -6 red radishes, washed, trimmed & thinly sliced |
1 hard-boiled egg, peeled & sliced |
4 cups mixed salad greens, washed and dried |
Directions:
1. Put shrimp into boiling water for 2 minutes, or just until they turn pink. Drain and place in an ice bath.
2. Mix mayonnaise, ketchip & brandy. Season with salt & pepper.
3. Drain shrimp well and mix with dill, mushrooms, radishes and egg.
4. Fold mayonnaise mixture into shrimp mixture.
5. Place salad greens on a large serving platter and arrange shrimp mixture on top.
6. Serve immediately, with a good baguette.
