RETRO FIRECRACKER PRAWN COCKTAIL SHOTS! (SHRIMP COCKTAIL SHOTS)



Retro Firecracker Prawn Cocktail Shots! (Shrimp Cocktail Shots) image

The French LOVE serving "Amuse Gueule" (appetisers) in shot glasses! So, I thought I would concoct a special recipe to accompany our pre-dinner aperitifs this New Year! A retro 1960's starter that I believe still has a place when served for special meals and parties, and this is so simple; it's also a great idea for a large gathering, as the glasses are small enough to nibble from whilst you sip your drinks! I used Mache (Lamb's Lettuce) in these prawn cocktail shots in the photos - but a selection of any seasonal salad leaves would be fine. The Firecracker comes from the addition of tabasco, pink peppercorns and cayenne pepper in the seafood sauce - adjust the quantities to suit your own taste - we like it piquant! Salut!

Time 5m

Yield 12 Small Prawn/Shrimp Cocktail Shots, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

500 g peeled cooked prawns or 500 g shrimp
200 g good quality mayonnaise or 200 g homemade mayonnaise
3 tablespoons tomato ketchup
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Tabasco sauce, to taste
salt and pepper
assorted mixed salad green, such as lambs lettuce, mesclun, little gem lettuces
1 tablespoon pink peppercorns, crushed
cayenne pepper, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Calculate how many "shots" you are making, and reserve one prawn (preferably with tail on) for decoration.
  • Mix the mayonnaise, ketchup, lemon juice and Tabasco in a bowl, season to taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  • Take your shot glasses, or small water glasses and line with some mixed salad leaves or lettuce.
  • Place about 5 prawns on top of the leaves/lettuce. The amount of prawns depends on what size they are.
  • Spoon over your seafood sauce and lightly mix through the prawns.
  • Sprinkle with the crushed pink peppercorns and cayenne pepper, and garnish with a prawn over the edge of the glass.
  • A lemon wedge can be added as well - but I find it is fiddly to deal with whilst slurping cocktails, and the sauce should be lemony enough!

PRAWN (SHRIMP) COCKTAIL



Prawn (Shrimp) Cocktail image

A fairly traditional Australian prawn cocktail recipe with the addition of some tomato and corn to garnish. It always tastes best if you use prawns just freshly cooked but then cooled in the fridge a while.
