Grilled Prawns And Cress Salad
- Prawns
- 12 jumbo prawns
- 1 / 2 small tin of anchovies, packed in oil
- 1 - 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 / 4 cups dry white wine
- 1 lemon, juiced
- 1 / 3 cups olive oil
- Romesco
- 2 red bell peppers
- 2 cloves black fermented garlic, or roasted garlic cloves
- 1 / 2 cups marcona almonds
- 1 splash balsamic vinegar
- sea salt
- 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
- 2 shallots
- Using a mortar and pestle, grind all ingredients for the prawns until well combined. Toss with shrimps in a bowl, sprinkle with sea salt, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate. I left mine for a few hours.
- Toast almonds (reserving the extra tablespoon of almonds for garnish) until they start to brown in a pan or toaster oven. Slice peppers and shallot thinly and saute with olive oil in a pan until they soften. You can add a 1/4 cup water and cover, cook on low for 5 minutes. In a food processor, combine all ingredients for the romesco except for the olive oil, and pulse. Add the oil in a slow stream as you pulse. Do not over blend, you should still have some of texture of the nuts in there.
- Wash and spin Upland Cress. Cut in half lengthwise, add to mixing bowl.
