Provided by Food Network

Yield 6 appetizer portions or 4 main

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons tamarind paste
2 tablespoons hot water
1/4 cup rice wine
1/4 cup warm honey
2 tablespoons thai fish sauce
1/2 pound seedless cucumber
1 pint cherry tomatoes
1 cup mung bean sprouts
2 tablespoons peanut oil
3 to 4 whole thai chili peppers
2 tablespoons grated ginger
1 pound jumbo shrimp, shelled
1/4 cup shelled, unsalted peanuts

Steps:

  • Dissolve the tamarind in the hot water in a small bowl. Add the rice wine, honey and fish sauce to the tamarind and stir well to combine. Set aside. Wash the cucumber and cherry tomatoes. Score the cucumber with a channeling knife or a fork and slice into paper thin slice using a vegetable slicer. Arrange the cucumber around the perimeter of a serving platter, overlapping decoratively as you go. Cut the tomatoes in quarters and similarly place around the platter overlapping the cucumbers where necessary. Place the mung bean sprouts, upon which the cooked shrimp will sit, in a heap in the center of the platter. Heat the peanut oil in a large saute pan or wok over high heat. Add the whole chili peppers and heat through for 30 seconds. Add the ginger, cook for 30 seconds, add the shrimp and stir fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tamarind glaze and bring to a fast boil. Toss or stir the shrimp well to coat in the glaze. Cook just until the shrimp begins to become firm and opaque, about 1 to 2 minutes more. Spoon the shrimp over the bean sprouts and serve.;

This salad is a great make-ahead meal. You can make it the night before, and then just serve it cold the next day.

Overall, I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my shrimp turned out rubbery. I'm guessing I overcooked them.

I thought this salad was just okay. The tamarind glaze was a bit too overpowering for my taste.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less tamarind paste next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad didn't turn out as flavorful as I expected. I think I might have used too much tamarind paste.
