Steps:
- Peel the shrimp. Rinse them, and place them in iced water with the coarse salt. Soak for an hour.
- Place the chilies in a bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave to soak for an hour.
- Remove the chilies from the water (reserving it) and take away the seeds and stems. Tear into large strips and place the chilies in a blender. Add the lemon or lime juice and enough of the soaking liquid to make a smooth puree. Set aside.
- Rinse the shrimp under cold water.
- Heat the oil in a skillet and add the garlic and shallots. Cook until soft.
- Add the shrimp and cook for one minute, then add one-and-a-half tablespoons ancho puree. Cook, stirring for a couple of minutes (beware of overcooking the shrimp). Taste and stir in more puree according to your taste. Season with salt and pepper and add the coriander. Serve immediately.
