Shrimp With Coriander And Mustard Seeds And Sweet Potato Hash Recipes

CORIANDER LIME SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a measuring cup whisk together lime juice, marmalade, garlic paste, coriander, 3 tablespoons oil, soy sauce, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to taste and reserve 1/3 cup mixture in a small bowl or ramekin for dipping. In a large sealable plastic bag combine shrimp with remaining mixture and marinate, chilled, tossing occasionally to coat shrimp, 45 minutes.
• Drain shrimp and lightly pat dry between paper towels. In a large non-stick skillet pat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and sauté half of shrimp until golden brown and cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Sauté remaining shrimp in remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in same manner.
• Garnish shrimp with coriander sprigs and serve with reserved dipping sauce.

MILD-STYLE SHRIMP BOIL WITH CORN AND RED POTATOES

Steps:

• Combine boiling water and bouillon cubes in a large pot and stir until dissolved. Add 8 additional cups of water, onion, garlic, bay leaves, cloves, butter, salt, coriander seeds, dill seeds, mustard seeds, celery seeds, allspice, and peppercorns and bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 20 minutes.
• Squeeze lemon juice into the pot and add lemon to the pot as well. Add potatoes and cook for 14 minutes. Add corn and cook 6 minutes more. Add shrimp and cook until opaque, about 3 minutes. Remove pot from heat.
• Add ice cubes to the pot with the shrimp boil and let sit for 5 minutes.
• For a traditional shrimp boil, place several layers of newspaper on the dining table. Use a slotted spoon to transfer shrimp, potatoes, and corn onto the center of the table for everyone to reach, grab, and enjoy. For a tidier take, place several layers of newspaper on a baking sheet. Place shrimp, potatoes, and corn on top of the sheet and place the sheet on the dining table for everyone to serve themselves. If you are a neat freak, place shrimp, potatoes, and corn in a serving dish to pass at the table.

ONE-POT SHRIMP BOIL WITH CORN AND POTATOES

Steps:

• Bring 5 quarts of water to a boil in a 10- to 12-quart pot. Squeeze lemon juice into water, then add the halves. Add onions, garlic, salt, and spice bundle. Reduce heat to a simmer; cover, and cook 10 minutes.
• Add potatoes to pot; return liquid to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until potatoes are almost tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Add corn; continue cooking 5 minutes more.
• Remove from heat. Stir in shrimp, submerging them completely. Cover, and let stand until shrimp are cooked through, about 3 minutes. Ladle 2 cups of broth into a glass measuring cup; drain the rest in a large colander, discarding liquid.
• Make spicy butter: In a small bowl, stir together melted butter and hot sauce to taste. Divide butter among small dishes or ramekins.
• Divide reserved broth among small bowls for dipping. Transfer shrimp and vegetables to a large platter, and serve with spicy butter, if desired.

SHRIMP WITH CORIANDER AND MUSTARD SEEDS AND SWEET-POTATO HASH

Steps:

• For the hash, blanch the potatoes in separate pots until nearly tender. Drain and set aside. Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until translucent. Add the white potato and 2 teaspoons of oil and saute until potato begins to brown. Add the sweet potato and cook until potatoes are tender. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the orange peel and parsley. Keep warm.
• For the shrimp, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the shrimp with the 1/2 teaspoon of salt and pepper. Add to the skillet in a single layer, sauteing 1 minute. Turn and cook 1 minute more. Pour off most of the oil and toss the garlic with the shrimp. Stir in the clam juice. Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon and keep them warm.
• Add the seeds and butter and simmer over high heat until slightly thickened and emulsified, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the lime juice, cilantro, cayenne and salt and pepper to taste.
• Arrange the hash in the center of the plates, surround with the shrimp, pour the sauce over them and serve.
