14.01.2024 Lenten dishes

Sometimes you really want to treat yourself to something unusual and very tasty. Not so long ago, exotic fruits such as avocados began to appear on sale in our stores. The tender, oily pulp is not only very nutritious, but also contains many useful substances that are easily absorbed by the body.

Although it is a fruit, it does not have a strong taste, so it goes very well with seafood, vegetables, cheese, assorted fruits and even chicken.

And today we will take a closer look at the combination of this exotic fruit with shrimp. In my opinion, this is the most delicious combination of all.

These two products are in perfect harmony with each other, and therefore dishes made from them are welcome on any festive or everyday table. In addition, they are considered powerful aphrodisiacs. And it will be a great addition to a romantic menu for two.

Shrimp are very tasty on their own, either boiled or fried. And avocado, having a rather neutral taste, goes well with them. And also these two products, combined with other components, create a simply amazing combination. We already have some of the options for such combinations, and today we’ll look at new recipes.

And today I propose to prepare delicious and at the same time simple salads from avocado and shrimp?

There is nothing easier than preparing an impressive looking salad using a delicious recipe! He will make a lasting impression thanks to his interesting presentation. Here in such a peel - a boat.

Ingredients:

Avocado - 2 pcs.
Boiled shrimp - 350 gr.
Tartar sauce - 2 tbsp. l.
Lemon juice - 2 tbsp. l.
Green onions - 3 pcs.
Salt, pepper, spices - to taste.

Preparation:

First, let's decide on shrimp. If you are lucky enough to buy them fresh, then cooking them is as easy as shelling pears. First, rinse well and boil in salted water with lemon juice for 2-3 minutes, depending on the size. The larger the shrimp, the more time they need, but the total cooking time does not exceed 3 minutes.

Cooked shrimp usually float to the surface. The main thing is not to overcook them, otherwise the meat will become tough.

1. Cut the avocado down to the pit and carefully separate it into two halves so as not to damage the skin.

Ripe avocados are slightly heavier in weight and slightly plasticine to the touch. Cleaning them is quite simple: you can cut off the skin with a regular knife or cut the fruit in half and, after removing the pit, scrape out the tender pulp with a spoon. The remaining intact crust can be used as an original “vase” for a salad in which the pulp of the fruit will be used.

2. Having removed the seed, for convenience, you can cut the flesh with a “grid” to the skin and then take it out with a spoon. This method of removal will allow you to avoid the additional process of slicing the fruit - they will already be cut into pieces. The length and width of the small cubes of pulp are varied by you when cutting with a knife.

3. Place our fruit cubes, boiled shrimp and Tartar sauce in a bowl. Sprinkle with lemon juice, which will add some piquancy and sourness to the salad. We also add salt and black pepper, and your favorite spices.

4. Scoop the well-mixed ingredients with a tablespoon and place in the saved avocado skin. It will look no worse than in a bowl!

For beauty, sprinkle finely chopped onions on top, or simply place individual onion feathers on top. You can also add a little more sauce or add lemon slices.

Salad with shrimp, arugula and avocado

This dish contains everything that can characterize a bright sunny summer - juicy tomatoes, green arugula leaves, ripe avocado and sunny olive oil. Tender shrimp add satiety to this combination, and lemon juice adds piquancy. Ideal products for snacking at a picnic or family gathering.

We will need:

Shrimp (frozen) - 600 grams;
Cherry tomatoes - 1 package (about 15 pieces);
Ripe lemon - 1 pc.;
Ripe avocado - 2 pcs.;
Balsamic vinegar - 1 tbsp;
Olive oil - 4 tbsp;
Spices (shrimp set);
Arugula salad - 180 grams;
Salt.

Preparation:

Let's start with the main ingredient - shrimp. You can prepare them in different ways - stew, bake, cook in a slow cooker, but the easiest way is to boil them. To do this, defrost it at room temperature, you can let it lie in warm water for a couple of minutes to make it faster. Meanwhile, prepare the brine - boil water, then add salt and spices to it for cooking seafood. Throw shrimp into boiling water. They will boil quite quickly, and after 2 minutes we remove them with a slotted spoon;
Cool the seafood, remove the shells, then remove the intestines, cutting them along the back (they look like a thin dark thread). As a result, our product volume will be approximately halved;
Wash the arugula thoroughly and let it dry completely so that the salad does not wilt too quickly. Then we disassemble into branches and tear off the lower sticks;
Wash the small tomatoes thoroughly, then cut them into halves. If we have large cherry tomatoes, we can divide them into quarters;
Wash the lemon well, divide it into halves, squeeze the juice from them;
Wash the avocado fruits well, then remove the skin. We cut them in half, remove the seeds, then chop them into oblong slices. Lightly sprinkle the slices with lemon juice;
Let's prepare the dressing: salt and pepper the olive oil, add a little lemon juice and balsamic vinegar. Let's beat everything;
We assemble our salad with shrimp and avocado: add halves of cherry tomatoes and arugula to the main ingredients. Pour over the dressing, then mix very carefully so as not to mash anything. This dish is best served in portioned plates. If desired, you can lightly sprinkle with Parmesan cheese shavings.

Tip: When choosing arugula for your table, you should remember the following rules:

The leaves of the plant must be bright green, fresh and not limp, in this case you will purchase a truly high-quality and tasty product;

The taste of the salad directly depends on the size of its leaves - the smaller they are, the more bitterness they contain;

Be sure to store arugula in the refrigerator, and it is advisable to place it in a vase with water. This way the plant will retain its freshness for up to 6 days.

Classic salad with shrimp and avocado

This dish is easy to create and also requires very little time to prepare. If possible, it is better for him to purchase peeled fresh frozen shrimp, since otherwise, they will have to be peeled raw, which will be a little more difficult than with boiled ones.

We will need:

Peeled frozen shrimp - 250 grams (or 500 grams unpeeled);
Lime - 1 pc.;
Tomatoes are ripe but firm - 3 pcs.;
Avocado - 2 pcs.;
Garlic - 3 cloves;
Sour cream - 6 tbsp;
Ketchup - 5 tbsp;
Mayonnaise - 3 tbsp;
Spices for shrimp.

Preparation:

If you only have frozen shrimp in their shells, you will have to defrost them and then peel them raw. And those who have ready-made peeled ones can immediately begin the sacrament of preparation. We also defrost our seafood to room temperature, simultaneously heating the pan;
Separately mix all the sour cream and a couple of spoons of ketchup. We peel the garlic, which we then press in a press. Mix with tomato-sour cream sauce. Season with salt, then add the mixture to the frying pan. Pour the shrimp in there and simmer for about 4-5 minutes until cooked. Place on a plate and cool;
We wash the avocado fruits, remove the skin, remove the seeds, and cut the pulp into strips;
Wash the tomatoes, then pierce them with a toothpick at the stem and pour boiling water over them. This manipulation will help you easily remove the skin from the tomatoes. Chop the pulp into cubes, add a little salt, leave for about 10 minutes. Then drain the juice and put everything in a salad bowl;
Wash the lime, cut it, then squeeze out the juice;
Peel the remaining garlic and press it in a press;
Prepare the sauce: combine mayonnaise and the remaining ketchup, add lime juice, beat the resulting mixture;
Assembling the salad: combine stewed shrimp, avocado, garlic, and tomatoes. Drizzle with pink tomato-mayonnaise sauce. Ready!

Tip: the taste of the salad largely depends on the correctness of the ingredients and their degree of ripeness. To choose a good avocado, pay attention to the following tips:

Press down lightly on the peel. In a ripe, high-quality fruit, it will bend under your fingers, and then the dent will quickly disappear, and the avocado will return to its former elasticity. An unripe fruit has a dense and hard structure, while an overripe fruit has a structure that is too soft; it will not return to its shape after pressing and will remain wrinkled;

In a ripe avocado, you can hear the sound of the pit; it easily separates from the pulp when ripe. Just shake the fruit near your ear and listen - if it knocks, you can buy it.

If our shrimps are very large, for example king shrimps, we cut them in half, leaving a few whole for decoration.
We wash the pepper and cut it. Remove the core with seeds and stalk. Then cut into thin strips;
We also wash the avocado, cut off the skin, and get rid of the pit. Then chop into the same slices as the pepper;
Drain the syrup from the pineapples, then cut into not too large pieces;

Cocktail salad with shrimp, avocado and aromatic melon

Ripe avocado – 2 fruits;
Sweet aromatic melon – 200 grams;
Cherry tomatoes – 1 handful;
Lettuce – 130 grams;
Tabasco sauce – individually;

Preparation:

Defrost the king prawns from the glaze, wash them well in a colander, simultaneously preparing the brine for cooking. Boil water, add your favorite spices, salt, and then boil the seafood. Remove with a slotted spoon or drain the liquid, let cool, then remove the shells. Don’t forget to remove the intestines by cutting the carcass from the back. If it is almost not felt in small shrimps, in large ones it will give a strong unpleasant bitterness. As a result, we will get about 200 grams of the finished product;
Wash the lettuce leaves thoroughly, then lightly pour boiling water over them to drive away the bitterness, and let them dry on napkins. We set aside a smaller part of them for serving, and tear the rest into shreds with our hands;
We wash the cherry tomatoes and divide them into halves or quarters;
Also wash the avocado, separate the skin and seeds, cut into strips;

Prepare the sauce: add Tabasco sauce to the mayonnaise at your discretion. The main thing is not to overdo it, otherwise you will interrupt the taste of seafood and other ingredients;
We assemble our food: we put whole lettuce leaves in a transparent salad bowl, or rather, we literally cover it. Then pour out the torn greens, on top of which we distribute the king prawns. Then, in a chaotic order, arrange the pieces of cherry, avocado, and melon. Pour hot mayonnaise sauce on top and enjoy the taste. It is not at all necessary to decorate such a salad, since due to the effectively arranged products it already looks attractive.
