Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

20 shrimp, peeled and deveined with tails on
Vegetable oil
Salt and pepper
Salt and pepper
4 tablespoons shallots, brunoise (about 1 1/2 shallots)
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic (about 4 cloves)
4 very ripe bananas (so ripe that the skins are black)
1:1 low-sodium soya/water (1/2 cup of each)
Roughly 3 tablespoons sambal
1 teaspoon honey
Juice of 2 limes
1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Onion sprouts, for garnish

Steps:

  • Sear the shrimp on one side in a skillet on medium-high heat with a little bit of vegetable oil, salt and pepper. Add the shallots and garlic. Once the shrimp are partially cooked, after about 1 minute, remove from the skillet. Next, add the bananas and break up the bananas with tongs while sauteing to essentially mash. Saute for 1 minute.
  • Add the water/soy mix, sambal and honey and saute another minute until heated through. Return the shrimp to the skillet and finish cooking, 2 to 3 minutes. Finish with the lime juice and cilantro, and then season again if necessary.
  • Spoon the banana sauce into bowls. A small concave vessel with a large bell is best. Place 5 shrimp to a bowl on top of the sauce. Garnish with onion sprouts.

The shrimp and banana combo was interesting, but the sauce was a bit bland.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less sugar in the sauce.

Not a fan of bananas in savory dishes, so I omitted them. The shrimp was still delicious cooked in the sauce.
