INGREDIENTS

Karen Mintzias
1 lb Raw medium shrimp
Salt
1/2 Sweet red pepper
8 Chives
2 tb Unsalted roasted peanuts
2 tb Fish sauce
2 tb Lime juice
2 tb Water
2 ts Sugar
1 ts Chinese chili sauce
2 Garlic cloves finely minced
2 tb Chopped fresh basil

INSTRUCTIONS

SAUCE
ADVANCE PREPARATION: Shell the shrimp, then devein by cutting along the top
of the curve, starting at the tail and making a progressively deeper cut so
the knife nearly cuts through the shrimp at the thick end. Rinse out the
vein.  Bring a large amount of lightly salted water to a rapid boil and add
the shrimp.  Cook until shrimp are done, between 1 and 2 minutes. To test,
cut a shrimp in half; it should be white in the center. Transfer the shrimp
immediately to a bowl of ice water to cool. When chilled, drain and
refrigerate until ready to use.
Mince and place in separate containers the red pepper and chives. Finely
chop the peanuts in a food processor and set aside. Combine the sauce
ingredients and mix well.
LAST-MINUTE PREPARATION:  Toss the shrimp with the sauce. Put in a
decorative bowl and place the bowl in crushed ice. Sprinkle the shrimp with
the red pepper, chives and peanuts. Serve at once.
Serves: 4 to 8 as an appetizer or 4 as a first course.
