Royal prawns with fresh herbs
This time we offer a recipe for a juicy dish,for which you will need king prawns. Fresh parsley combined with spices and lime juice will give the dish a special piquancy. Ingredients:
- two cloves of garlic
- seasonings - at your discretion (you can use marjoram, basil and others)
- lime - one piece
- half kilo of shrimp
- 250 milliliters of soy sauce
- small bunch of fresh parsley
- 20 milliliters of vegetable oil
Method of preparation:First, peel the garlic and then crush it — you can do this with a special press or a regular knife. In the latter case, cut the cloves into thin slices. Then put them in a frying pan with already heated oil and fry for a short time. As soon as the garlic changes color, and this will happen in one or two minutes, turn off the burner. If you are using frozen king prawns, they should be taken out of the refrigerator at least an hour before cooking. As soon as the seafood has “set aside” a little, put them in the dish where the garlic was fried (it should be transferred to another bowl) and brown in vegetable oil on all sides. Pour soy sauce on top and, sprinkling with salt and spices, cook over low heat for no longer than five minutes. Serve the dish in beautiful plates, drizzling with lime juice and garnishing with finely chopped herbs. The latter can be used both fresh and frozen. In fact, the recipe for this appetizer exists in two versions. We have just told you about the first, now we will dwell in a little more detail on the second dish. Whatever shrimp you use - frozen or fresh - you need to boil them first. This process does not take much time - just three to five minutes! To make the seafood appetizing, it is recommended to add a little black peppercorns, a couple of bay leaves to the water, you can throw in 15 grams of parsley or dill. Then the dish will come out fresh, with a characteristic flavor of spices. After the shrimp are boiled, fry them in oil and follow the same technology that was described earlier. We hope you will like the appetizer! Before serving, put it in a deep plate and sprinkle with finely chopped herbs, and serve the sauce in a special bowl: combine the soy product and lime juice.
Boiled shrimps with mushrooms and ginger in soy sauce
This recipe is dedicated to all beer lovers.The drink itself has far from healing properties, and if you drink it with products such as chips, crackers, dried fish and squid, which are sold in every supermarket, then you can’t even dream of feeling good. Therefore, we recommend compensating one with the other, that is, drinking beer in the company of friends with a “harmless” snack. Boiled shrimp are ideal for this. In order for the dish to not only look appetizing, but also taste good, it should be cooked correctly. And here’s how to do it, we’ll tell you now. Ingredients:
- 350 grams of fresh shrimp
- a few feathers of green onions
- small ginger root
- 35 milliliters of refined olive oil
- 150 grams of fresh champignons
- four tablespoons soy sauce
- small fresh cucumber - for decoration
Method of preparation:The recipe for a shrimp and champignon dish will be especially useful if you decide to throw a themed party in a marine style. The dish will be an ideal appetizer for dark or light beer. You can use any seafood, both fresh and frozen, for cooking. The main thing is that they are meaty and look great. King prawns meet these characteristics, but keep in mind that they are a little more expensive than regular ones. So, take the recipe in hand and get down to the most important thing: put a pan of slightly salted water on the fire, put the seafood in it and cook until done. If you like spices, add a bay leaf and a few black peppercorns. Some culinary sources recommend using marjoram, so do it at your own discretion. When the shrimp are ready, remove the shells and then cut into thin slices. Now chop the green onions into rings, grate the ginger into medium strips on a grater, and chop the champignons into thin circles. In principle, at this stage the preparation of the dish can be finished, but if you want it to be not only tasty but also beautiful, fry the seafood in olive oil. This will give them an appetizing ruddy crust. However, before removing the dishes from the stove (about three minutes), add soy sauce and ginger. Hold for a little longer and turn off the burner. In the same aromatic sauce, cook the champignons until done. When they acquire a slightly brownish tint and release juice, this means it is time to remove the product from the heat. The dish is laid out on portioned plates as follows: first, make a hill of seafood, then pour it with the sauce in which the ingredients were fried, then garnish with champignons and fresh green onions. Place thinly sliced cucumber next to it.

For those who are against such food, we recommend removing the pepper sauce, replacing it with light seasonings with a mild flavor. Ready to get started? Then boil the shrimp, adding salt to your taste. If desired, you can add a little bay leaf, when the seafood is ready, rinse them under the tap and throw them in a colander, letting them drain. Now remove the shell and set aside for a while, move on to the next step. Heat soy (you will need one tablespoon) and pepper sauces in a saucepan, add vegetable oil and cayenne pepper here. If you are using fresh garlic, peel it and crush it with a press. Then add to the previous ingredients. With a product in granules, there is much less hassle - just pour it into the pan. As for salt and seasonings, they should be added exclusively to your taste - then you will not spoil the dish. You need to time it for half a minute and after this time, add boiled and peeled shrimp, then finely chopped green onions. As soon as the seafood acquires a pinkish-golden hue, remove them from the stove. To keep them warm, cover with a lid. A special sauce is served with the dish, the recipe for which is quite simple. In a separate bowl, combine soy sauce, as well as rice vinegar and sesame oil. Squeeze some nectar from a fresh orange, add honey, grate ginger and crush garlic. Mix all the ingredients thoroughly and pour the resulting mixture into a special sauceboat. Put on the table together with fried shrimp. To make the dish look much more appetizing, you can put it on a large plate with a green salad, and then garnish with curly parsley. By the way, if you come across thick honey, before making the sauce, melt it in a double boiler - then you won’t have to suffer for a long time mixing the ingredients.
Shrimp in oven with rosemary under soy sauce
Herbs and spices add piquancy to a dish. And if you add them to a shrimp dish, the characteristic aroma and taste of seafood becomes even more noticeable. Ingredients:
- shrimp (take peeled) - half a kilogram
- 50 milliliters of soy sauce
- the same amount of olive oil
- dry rosemary - two teaspoons (also recommend adding a couple of sprigs of fresh)
- salt
- 70 grams of special green butter with herbs
- fresh soft baguette
Method of preparation:It should be noted that regular butter will not work for this dish — you need to use “green” butter. That’s what it’s called, but this product is not sold in every supermarket, so here’s a little advice. If you can’t find it, take note of the following recipe. You’ll need fresh parsley and two cloves of garlic, lemon juice, two pinches of salt and, of course, a pack of regular butter. You can add a couple of sprigs of rosemary if you like. Place all the ingredients in a blender bowl and beat thoroughly several times. If you don’t have one, use a mixer. Now that the herb butter is on the table, start preparing the main course. If you bought frozen shrimp, take them out of the refrigerator and let them sit for about half an hour. Rinse them under the tap, dry them well and place them in a heat-resistant glass dish. Rub the insides of the latter with “green” butter so that the dish doesn’t burn. Now put the shrimps, well greased with the creamy product with herbs. Pour over the soy sauce, sprinkle with salt, rosemary and add a few spoons of olive oil. Let the dish sit for half an hour, then mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands and put the dish in the oven. Bake at 180 degrees for no longer than 20 minutes. Serve on a plate with slices of fresh baguette. Shrimp in soy sauce can be eaten as a snack with beer or added to salads. So cook and experiment to your heart's content! We recommend reading:
