Escabeche De Mexicana Recipes

Steps:

• Heat your grill to high. Toss the shrimp in a bowl with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Grill the shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes per side or until just cooked through. Transfer shrimp to a clean medium bowl.
• Heat 1/3 cup olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When oil is hot, add the onion, garlic, and serrano chiles and cook until soft. Add the cumin and mustard seeds and cook for 1 minute. Add the vinegar, bay leaves, and cilantro and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and immediately pour over the shrimp and stir to coat. Let cool to room temperature, cover, and then refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight, stirring a few times during that time. Transfer the escabeche, with a slotted spoon, to a platter and garnish with sliced radishes and torn cilantro.

Steps:

• Place the vinegar, salt, sugar, oregano and 75 ml/2 fl oz/1/4 cup water in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar, and bring to the boil.
• Add the remaining ingredients and cook for 2 minutes. Pour into a bowl and cool to room temperature.
• Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Add the onion and saute for three minutes, then add the garlic. Continue cooking until the onions are soft, 1-2 minutes more.
• Add the water and bring to a boil. Add the jalapenos and carrots and cook for 5 minutes, until slightly softened. Add the cider vinegar, 1 tbsp pickling salt, oregano and bay leaves and simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
• Transfer the jalapenos, carrots and onions with slotted spoon or tongs into sterilized glass quart-sized jars. Throw away the bay leaves.
• Cover the vegetables with the cooking liquid until the jars are three-quarters full. Add 1 tbsp pickling salt to each jar and fill to the top with white vinegar.
• Cap each jar tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to several months. The pickled vegetables can be used starting one week later.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Pat tilapia dry with a paper towel. Cut 2 to 3 slits on either side of the fish. Sprinkle salt on top. Fry in the hot oil until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add red bell pepper and ginger; saute until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Mix water, vinegar, and sugar together in a bowl. Pour into the onion mixture in the skillet. Cover and bring to a boil. Cook until slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add cornstarch. Boil, stirring often, until sauce is thickened, about 5 minutes. Pour sauce over the fish.
