SPANISH GARLIC SHRIMP (GAMBAS AL AJILLO)

Every Spanish restaurant serves this dish of shrimp cloaked in garlic-infused olive oil with smoky hints of paprika and a touch of sweetness from sherry. Make sure you have all your ingredients together before you head to the stove since, start to finish, this cooks in mere minutes. It's great for a tapas party, since you can prep everything ahead of time. Just spoon the shrimp and sauce over toasted bread and sprinkle more cayenne and parsley on top to enjoy.

Steps:

  • Slice garlic thinly. Season shrimp with kosher salt and paprika. Mix to coat.
  • Heat garlic and oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook until garlic starts to turn golden, about 2 minutes. Add shrimp and increase heat to high. Toss and turn shrimp with tongs until starting to curl but still undercooked, about 2 minutes. Pour in sherry. Cook, stirring continuously, until sauce comes up to a boil and shrimp is cooked through, about 1 minute more. Remove from heat. Stir in parsley with a spoon.

SPANISH-STYLE SHRIMP WITH GARLIC

Garlic and shrimp take center stage in this classic Spanish dish, which is served as a tapa in Spain but also makes a great main dish. Serve with rice, or if serving in earthenware dishes, with crusty bread for dipping.

SPANISH TIGER PRAWNS (SHRIMPS)

I regularly cook these for dinner parties and they remain a firm favourite. I have had to teach numerous friends the recipe and have had the dish cooked for me many times on return invitations. It is important that the prawns are raw, with the heads on, as this is where much of the flavour comes from. Fresh are better, but frozen tiger prawns make a perfectly satisfactory alternative if necessary. Birds-eye chillies are very small, but very hot. During marinading, a small amount of this heat is transferred to the oil and sherry. Be careful not to bite into one of these chilles, though - you will find yourself stuffing your mouth full of bread to numb the burn! I normally serve the dish as a starter, in the pan in the centre of the table and accompanied with lots of fresh French bread for dunking. Wonderfully tasty and typically Spanish.

Steps:

  • Mix a count the olive oil and sherry in a shallow dish. Add garlic, chillies, salt and pepper. Squeeze lemon into mixture.
  • Remove shells from prawns. Squeeze the heads into the mixture, place the prawns and heads into the mixture and discard the remaining shells. The squeezing of the heads is a very important step and should not be forgotten, however squeemish!
  • Ensure the prawns are mostly covered by the mixture. If not, add more sherry and olive oi in equal measures.
  • Cover and leave to marinade at cool room temperature for as long as possible, preferably 3 hours. If less time is available, add more garlic and chillies. Mix occasionally to cover the prawns.
  • Remove prawns from mixture, leaving heads in the sauce, and place to one side.
  • Heat the marinade over a high heat until bubbling and the heads have turned pink.
  • Return the raw prawns to the pan and stir until just cooked.
  • Remove some heads from the pan if desired, although a few make an attractive addition, and the Spanish traditionally suck any remaining juice from them.
  • Serve in the pan in the centre of the table with lots of crust bread for dipping.

Steps:

  • Rinse the prawns in a colander, remove their heads and leave them to drain.
  • Heat the butter and oil in a large frying pan, add the garlic and fry over a low heat for 2 to 3 minutes (Cook the prawns in a large frying pan or cast iron flamproof dish that can be taken directly to the table, so that they retain their heat until they are served).
  • Add the lime rind and juice.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute more.
  • Add the prawns and cook them for 2 to 3 minutes until they turn pink.
  • Remove them from the heat, sprinkle with coriander and serve with the warm tortillas.
  • Give each guest a finger bowl filled with water and a slice of lemon, for cleaning their fingers after shelling the prawns, and provide lots of paper napkins!

1/2 cup butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 garlic cloves, smashed
