To those who had requested for sea food recipe:

Blanch cleaned shrimp (dip them in salted boiling water for about 2 minutes - scoop them out - dip them immediately in ice cold water to stop the cooking process). When chilled, serve with the following sauce/dip - this is one of the quickest sauce/dip recipes that I have:

Olive oil : 3 table spoon
Lemon Juice : 2 table spoon
Wine : 3 table spoon.
Salt and pepper to taste.
Water used for blanching shrimp (above): 2 table spoon. Mix well. Serve.

Kindly make sure the diners are not allergic to sea food - it is a common occurrence.

Though I am a pure Vegetarian......
First of all plz. tell, what is the difference between Shrimps and Prawns. &
Second(also the main query)
क्या हम(particular Our Community) इतने आधुनिक हो गए हैं कि सामूहिक एवं सार्वजनिक रूप से "Shrimp" की रेसिपी इस स्तर के मंच पर पचा सकें। Those who are living abroad, may understand what Shrimps/Prawns are. But I m sure that 99% of our community doesn't know, what is this. I m not saying this illogically as I've served @ Reliance Non-veg Store "Delight" as a Store Manager for two years at Gurgaon, Sec-17 Market. I've never ever faced a Jaat asking for the Shrimps except one or two incidents. Though I was proud of being the No.1 Store in sale, hygiene and also in revenue, in the entire north Indian organised Non-veg retail.
So plz. put some light on the Non-veg culture regarding our community. Comments from all the Jaatlanders are welcome.
Thanx.

I cannot comment on that.

I know many Jats who buy sea food items (cooked).

What is the purpose of olive oil in this recipe? Did you mean extra virgin olive oil? :)

Urmila ji,

How can you blanch shrimps with just 2 table spoon of water? ,

I don't know that either. The shrimp would have to be really really small!!!

If you read carefully, the 2 tbsp of blanching water requirement is for the sauce, not for blanching the shrimps.

Ohh..its clear now. But you did not tell why you are using olive oil? BTW I tried this recipe yesterday. I did not use olive oil. But apart from that, it was quick and easy :)
