Spicy Shrimp

A Moroccan way with shrimp that is quick to do and really delicious. If you buy the shrimp frozen, let them thaw in the refrigerator before peeling.

Ingredients

serves 2

2 cloves garlic, crushed
3 tablespoons sunflower or extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
3/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
A good pinch of cayenne or ground chili pepper
1/2 pound large fresh or frozen shrimp, peeled
Salt
2–3 tablespoons chopped cilantro or parsley

  1. Heat the garlic in the oil until the aroma rises. Stir in the spices and throw in the shrimp. Season with salt, add the cilantro or parsley, and fry quickly, stirring, for about 5 minutes, until the shrimp turn pink.
