Shrimp Potato Nests Rsc Recipes

POTATO NESTS

Steps:

• Fill a large, heavy-bottomed pot with about 4 inches of oil. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F over medium heat.
• Peel the potato and grate it with a mandoline, making strings about 2 millimeters thick. Rinse the potato strings in a strainer under cold running water. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and spread the potato strings on the towels. Top with more paper towels to dry.
• Place the potato strings in a spider strainer, filling the bottom and going up the sides creating a "nest." Place a slotted spoon on top of the strainer to keep the potato strings in place and carefully lower the strainer and spoon together into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a baking sheet lined with a paper towel. Sprinkle with salt. Continue with the remaining potato strings.

CHEESY POPCORN SHRIMP POTATO NESTS

Steps:

• Position oven racks in the middle and lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Generously spray a 24-cup mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
• Put the hash browns in a medium bowl, add the eggs and toss with a fork to coat. Divide the mixture among the cups of the prepared muffin tin (about 2 tablespoons per cup). Use the back of a tablespoon measure to gently press the hash browns around the bottom and sides to form a thin layer with some shaggy bits sticking up and out of the cups. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake the hash brown cups on the top rack for 20 minutes, then rotate the muffin tin from front to back. Spread the popcorn shrimp in a single layer on a baking sheet and put on the bottom rack. Continue to bake until the hash brown cups are golden brown on the ends and crispy and the shrimp are warmed through and crispy, about 10 minutes for the shrimp and 10 to 15 minutes for the hash browns.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small pot over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, whisking, until it begins to foam, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the warm milk and bring to a simmer; simmer until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the Cheddar until completely melted into the sauce. Stir in the broccoli and 1/2 teaspoon salt and place over low heat to warm through.
• When ready to serve, arrange the hash brown cups on a serving platter. Spoon about 1 heaping tablespoon of the broccoli cheese sauce into the center of each cup. Top with 1 or 2 pieces of popcorn shrimp.

Set aside. Next mix all the sassy sauce ingredients together; using your judgment as to how spicy you want to be. Mix in shrimp and place in refrigerator to chill.
• Next, put hot water in hash browns as directed. Grate zucchini and carrot in bowl together. Drain has brown potatoes and add to bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and then toss all with oil. Spray a 12 hole muffin tin with cooking spray. Place a scoop of potatoes in each tin and make a hollow with back of spoon so that you have a small nest of potatoes. Bake in a 400 degree oven for about 25 minutes or until browned.
• While nests are baking, boil red potatoes, drain and mash, Next add Ranch dressing, cream, garlic and chives. Stir together until well combined and fairly creamy. A few lumps are OK.
• When nests are done, lift them out of tin and place on platter. Put mashed potatoes in a pastry bag or plastic storage bag and cut off tip of it. I then place a small swirl of mashed potatoes in nests and then place a helping of the shrimp on top. These really are best served while the potatoes are warm but they are pretty good cold too!
