Camaron al Aguachile Estilo Urique


Mexican style shrimp cocktail



INGREDIENTS

250 g

Cocktail Shrimp

1

Garlic clove

coarse sea salt

Chiltepin or Chile piquin

Arí

1

Onion

1

Tomato

dried oregano leaves

Ketchup

Kermato (tomato-clam juice for cocktails)

Water


PREPARATION

Crush garlic, salt, chile (you can adjust the spiciness according to your likings) and arí in a stone mortar to a thick paste. If you don't own a stone mortar, you can do it in another type of mortar or use your food processor to work the ingredients into a thick paste.

Mince onion and tomato.

Fill the mortar up with kermato (or any other tomato-clam juice for cocktails), some ketchup and water and dissolve the chile-garlic-paste.

It's best to serve the dish immediately in the stone mortar. It is served with tostadas or tortilla chips.


Our special tip: The Aguachile is best served with an icecold Mexican beer and/or a cooled, white Tequila.
