- Preparation: 125 min
- Cooking: 3 min
- Makes: 1 serving (156 g)
- Difficulty: Easy
- Diets: Pescatarian, Low carb
- Contains: dairy, gluten, shellfish
Ingredients
- 90 g Shrimp, raw
- 30 g Ghee
- 0.3 g Cayenne pepper
- 0.2 g Nutmeg
- 5 g Lemon juice
- 30 g Bread, white
Method
- Melt the ghee gently in a small pan. Add the shrimp, cayenne pepper and nutmeg and warm through for 2-3 minutes until the shrimp are heated and coated in the spiced butter — do not let it boil.
- Stir in the lemon juice, then spoon the shrimp into a small ramekin, pressing down and making sure they are fully covered by the butter.
- Chill for at least 2 hours, or until the butter has set solid on top, sealing the shrimp underneath.
- Take it out of the fridge 15 minutes before serving so the butter softens slightly, and toast the bread.
- Serve the potted shrimp straight from the ramekin with the hot toast.
