Kuting's Kitchen: Avocado-Shrimp Tango

My househelp and I love watching Kusina Master, the cooking show of Chef Boy Logro. Since I am busy with the baby, my househelp tries the recipes of Chef Boy.  Good thing she loves to whip up new dishes and she’s very good at it. 

But there was this easy recipe that I was very eager to try. I was able to prepare it while the baby was sleeping though it took me 30 minutes before I was able to eat it since the baby woke up just after I made the finishing touches :)


Avocado-Shrimp Tango


Ingredients:

avocado
shrimp/prawn
white onion
olive oil
cucumber

Procedure:


1. Blanch shrimp/prawn in salted boiling water for a few seconds. Remove and refresh with ice water. Strain and set aside.

2. Combine the diced the onion, avocado and cooked shrimp in a mixing bowl.

3. Toss gently and gradually add in olive oil, season with salt and pepper.

4. Marinate the sliced cucumber with salt for 5 minutes in a tray.

5. Rinse with cold water and season with freshly ground black peppercorn and mint leaves.

6. Arrange cucumber into desired mold and fill up with the shrimp salad.


The verdict: Yum, yum, yum!
