A little french styling to ordinary shrimp, a certain je-ne-sais-quoi, small, tasty, full of juice. Very delicate and yummie! You cannot help but eat them with your fingers! Enjoy! :)

Ingredients
  • * 1 lb Maine Shrimps
  • * 2 fresh lemongrass stalks
  • * 2 scallions
  • * 1 piece of ginger root
  • * 3 garlic cloves
  • * 1 tablespoon fresh coriander chopped
  • * 2 tablespoon fish sauce
  • * 1/2 to 1 lime (juice)
  • * 1.5 tsp raw dark sugar
  • * 2 tablespoon heavy cream (or coconut milk)
  • * 4 tablespoon sesame oil
  • * Pepper
  • * 4 cups fresh spinach

Directions
  1. # Start by peeling your shrimps, making sure you keep the tails.
  2. # Chop very thinly the ginger, the lemongrass (white part only), the coriander, the garlic and add 2 Tbsp of sesame oil to the chopped ingredients.
  3. # Mix with the shrimps to coat and place in the fridge until ready to use.
  4. # Wash the spinach. Take a big wok and heat one Tbsp of sesame oil.
  5. # When hot, add the spinach and cook for about 3 to 4 min. It will give out some water. Place on the side.
  6. # Remove the water in the wok and heat again the last Tbsp of oil.
  7. # When hot, add the shrimp and cook for a few minutes.
  8. # Then, add the lime juice, the fish sauce and the sugar, cook for 1 minutes and then add the precooked spinach. Cook for 1 more minutes.
  9. Finish by adding the cream.
  10. # Chop fresh scallions and put on top.
  11. Serve with steamed jasmine rice.
