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!
