GRILLED SHRIMP WITH CORIANDER SAUCE AND BLACK BEAN CAKES

Steps:

• To make the bean cakes: Drain the washed and soaked beans and place them in a 1 gallon pot with cold water to cover. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 1 hour, skimming every now and then; stir frequently. In a medium saute pan or skillet over medium heat, heat the oil and onions, peppers, optional jalapenos, and garlic until soft, about 5 minutes. Add to the beans along with the cumin, bay leaf, chili powder, honey, vinegar, salt, pepper, and Tabasco. Add more water if necessary to keep the beans from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Continue cooking and stirring over low heat until the beans and vegetables begin to break down. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Lightly oil a 12-by-18-inch baking pan. Puree the beans in a food processor, leaving a little texture, then spread the puree in the prepared baking pan and bake for 10 minutes. Remove and let cool. Form the bean puree into small cakes, about 1/2 cup each. Set aside. To prepare the shrimp: Toss the shrimp with the oil, garlic, and seasonings. Skewer 4 for each portion and marinate for 20 minutes. To make the sauce: In a small saucepan, simmer the shallots, orange zest, ground coriander, orange juice, wine, and vinegar until reduced by half. While still hot, place the mixture in a blender and blend for 5 seconds. Return to the pan. Add the butter, one piece at a time, whisking until blended. Stir in the cilantro and season with salt and pepper. Keep warm over warm water. Broil or grill the shrimp for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until pink and opaque. To serve: Place a warmed black bean cake on each serving plate. Put four shrimp on each plate and cover with sauce. Put a dollop of sour cream on each black bean cake and garnish with a cilantro sprig.

GRILLED SHRIMP WITH BLACK BEAN CAKES AND CORIANDER SAUCE

Steps:

• Black Bean Cakes
• Place the black beans in cold water to cover. Soak overnight, or for at least 1 hour. Drain, rinse, place in a large pot, and cover with fresh cold water. Bring to a boil, skim the foam, then simmer over low heat for about 1 hour. Add more water, if necessary, to keep the beans covered.
• Meanwhile, heat the 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the onion, peppers, and garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the vegetables, along with the honey, vinegar, chili powder, and cumin, to the beans and continue to simmer. When the beans are quite soft and are starting to break down, season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook until the beans are creamy.
• Remove the bean mixture from the heat and strain, reserving the liquid. Puree in a food processor, then transfer to a baking sheet. Spread the puree evenly and let it cool completely. Form the puree into little cakes shaped like hockey pucks (use about 1/2 cup per cake). The consistency is perfect if it is moist enough to gather into a ball, but not so wet that the mixture sticks to your hands.
• Preheat the oven to 400°F. To finish the cakes, lightly dust them with flour. Heat a medium skillet (lightly coated with oil) over medium-high heat. Sauté the cakes just long enough to get a nice crust on each side. When ready to serve, place them on baking sheets in the oven to warm through. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream and a sprig of cilantro.

• In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil and seasonings. Toss the shrimp with this marinade and refrigerate while you make the coriander sauce.
• Turn on the broiler or light the grill.
• Place 4 shrimp on each skewer.
• Meanwhile, heat the black bean cakes.
• Broil or grill the shrimp 2-3 minutes on each side, until just cooked through. Remove from the skewers, arrange on four plates, and drizzle with the warm coriander sauce. Serve with a black bean cake.
• Coriander Sauce
• Place the shallot, orange zest and juice, wine, vinegar, and coriander in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the liquid is reduced to 2 or 3 tablespoons. While it's still hot, whisk in softened butter by the spoonful until the sauce is emulsified (it will look thick and creamy). Stir in the chopped cilantro and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and keep warm over low heat.
