A simple and fresh recipe to resume the threads of this blog, far too long abandoned due to job, commitments, and other amenities, but always in my mind!
So, back in action!
Ingredients for 2 servings:
- 200 g peeled shrimps
- 3 tbsp mayonnaise
- 3 tbsp tomato ketchup
- a dash of paprika
- 1 tbsp brandy or Grand Marnier
- white pepper
- 150 g lettuce
- 3 medium carrots, thinly sliced
- salt to taste
- 2 slices of toasted bread
1- Wash the lettuce, cut into small pieces and dry (or simply open a bag of already cut and washed salad! It’s up to you!;)).
Do the same with the carrots and cut into thin slices.
2- Put the mayonnaise, ketchup, paprika, white pepper and brandy in a bowl and mix with a spoon. Let rest in the fridge for about 10 minutes.
Your sauce is ready!
3- Add the shrimps to the lettuce and carrots. Add the cocktail sauce, mix well and add salt to taste. Last thing, add the previously toasted bread cut in 2 pieces to decorate.
For a more elegant appearance, put aside some shrimp and use it to decorate the salad.
this looks lovely and delicious – good to “see” you as well, I have been wondering how you are!
Cheers!
It’s good to see you too!:D These last months I really worked a lot and I didn’t find any time at all to try recipes or simply to think about my blog! Sadly indeed 😦 but now I’m back in action!
We’ve missed you! So glad you are back, and with shrimp too!

I’m glad to see you too! I’m here with shrimp, cook books and many recipes to try and share! 😀 However I can’t work all the time without a little (web) space for me, can I? 😉
