INSTRUCTIONS
Place the potatoes in a bowl and rinse them with slowly running cold water
until the water runs clear. Place the potatoes in a saucepan and cover with
fresh water. Add 1 teaspoon salt and bring up to the boil. Reduce the heat
and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the potatoes are almost tender
but not flaking. Drain in a colander. In a heavy skillet, heat the olive
oil over medium heat. Add the shrimp and saute for 2 minutes, tossing every
30 seconds or so. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes more, or until
shrimps are pink. Do not overcook. Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl and
add the potatoes. Add the olive oil, shallots, oregano, capers, lemon
juice, salt, and pepper and toss together until evenly mixed. Serve on tiny
plates or in small ramekins. This recipe yields 8 to 10 servings as part of
a tapas.
