I would urge other cooks to try this recipe as Janeydoe intended it: for one (at a time), and probably as a starter, with something else on the plate as well. I liked the exotic promise of the ingredients, but had to multiply by 6, which isn't really fair ... I defrosted 800g of large shrimps (it came in one block). I made the recipe exactly as given, but 1 Tbsp had to become 6. It IS exotic-tasting; "different" is perhaps the word. Janeydoe didn't give a lot of info. LATER NOTE: I thought my husband would not like it, but he says it's great! It's been standing in a warming oven for a while (he had to eat later than me) and the flavour has mellowed, whereas I found it a bit sweet before.Reply
