Festive prawns with roast potatoes and caviar cream

Ingredients

  • 250g cooked Norso headless shrimp (approx. 18 needed for garnish)

  • 1 large fresh cucumber

  • 1 ripe avocado

  • 1/2 small red onion (very finely chopped, optional)

  • 1 tablespoon lime or lemon juice

  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

  • 1/2 clove garlic

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill or cilantro

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt and freshly ground pepper

  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds or black cumin (for sprinkling)

Due/Garnish:

  • 1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce (for lightly drizzling)

Optional:

  • A few sprouts for garnish

Recipe instructions

Preparing the Shrimp

  1. Remove the shells and intestines from the shrimp, leaving the tails.

  2. Pat the cleaned shrimp dry and set aside.

Preparing the Cucumber

  1. Wash the cucumber. Using a peeler or knife, cut the cucumber into thick slices (about 0.5 - 1 cm thick).

  2. You can gently remove the core and seeds with a small spoon, creating a small indentation.

Avocado Mousseline

  1. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh.

  2. Mash the avocado flesh with a fork into a paste or blend it until smooth.

  3. Add lime juice, olive oil, crushed garlic, chopped dill (or cilantro), salt, and pepper. Mix.

  4. Optional: add finely chopped red onion for a richer flavor. Transfer the paste to a piping bag fitted with a tip (or simply use a small spoon).

Assembling and Serving

  1. Spread a dollop of avocado cream on each cucumber slice.

  2. Place one cleaned shrimp on top of the avocado.

  3. Gently drizzle the entire appetizer with sweet chili sauce.

  4. Sprinkle with sesame seeds or black cumin seeds and garnish with sprouts, if using.

  5. Serve immediately, well chilled.

Chef's Tip: To make the cucumber slices firmer and more aesthetically pleasing, use a julienne peeler to create a decorative pattern on the outer skin before slicing. You can also sprinkle the cucumbers with a pinch of salt and let them sit for 5 minutes to release excess water, then pat them dry.
