lemon-cilantro crema
(i didn't use any exact measurements, so just season & add to taste)
- Mayonnaise
- Sour cream
- Chopped cilantro
- Garlic salt
- Lemon juice
Coctel de Camarones (shrimp cocktail)
(adapted from Chef Rick Bayless)
ingredients
- 1 pound uncooked small shrimp
- ¾ cup ketchup
- ¼ cup Mexican hot sauce, I used Tapatio
- ½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 3 Tbs fresh lemon juice
- 1 small white onion, chopped
- ¾ cup clam juice
- 1 avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, sliced crosswise
1. Boil the shrimp, cook until shrimp are pink and firm, 10 to 30 seconds. Immediately drain shrimp in a colander and then rinse under cold water until shrimp are cool.
2. Stir together the ketchup, hot sauce, cilantro, lemon juice, white onion, and clam juice in a medium-sized bowl. Add shrimp and stir well.
3. Taste & season with salt accordingly, garnish with slices of avocado, and serve with lime wedges and crackers or tortilla chips.
Note: If you're not accustomed to spicy food, I recommend adding the hot sauce a little at a time and season it to taste.
