Battered prawn tails and tartar sauce, the recipe.
Battered prawn tails are a tasty and crunchy appetizer, perfect for any occasion. This simple and tasty recipe will win over your guests and will certainly be a success. On board, every now and then and for some cocktails or special occasions, they are prepared and they are delicious.
So, taking inspiration from this photo, I decided to write the recipe for you.

Ingredients

For the batter:
– 200g 00 flour;
– 250ml iced sparkling water;
– 1 egg;
– 1 pinch of salt.
For the prawns:
– 500g fresh prawn tails;
– Salt and pepper to taste;
– Peanut oil for frying;
– Lemon juice (optional).
For the Tartata Sauce:
– 200ml mayonnaise;
– 1 tbsp chopped capers;
– 1 gherkin, finely chopped;
– 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley;
– 1 tsp Dijon mustard;
– 1 tbsp lemon juice;
– Salt and pepper to taste.

Preparation

Prepare the shrimp: shell and clean the shrimp tails, removing the intestinal thread with a toothpick. Rinse them well under cold running water, then dry them with kitchen paper. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Prepare the batter: in a bowl, mix the flour with the salt. Add the iced sparkling water and the egg, then mix quickly with a whisk until you obtain a smooth and homogeneous batter. Do not overmix, the batter should remain slightly lumpy to be more crispy.
Prepare the tartar sauce: in a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, capers, gherkin and parsley. Add the Dijon mustard and lemon juice, mixing well until the mixture is smooth. Adjust the salt and pepper to taste. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving, so the flavors can meld.
Fry the shrimp: Heat the peanut oil in a deep frying pan until it reaches 350-355°F (170-180°C). Dip each shrimp tail into the batter, letting the excess drip off, then fry in the hot oil until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Serve the battered shrimp tails with the tartar sauce on the side in a small bowl. Your guests can dip the shrimp in the sauce, adding a creamy, savory touch to the dish.

A casa mia non è veramente festa se, prima del piatto principale del pasto, non mangiamo qualche affettato di antipasto.
Di solito: prosciutto crudo, prosciutto cotto, coppa e salame. Ultimamente, in qualche occasione abbiamo aggiunto anche dell’ottimo culatello.

Palmito, o cuore di palma, gustato a Montevideo

Palmito, or heart of palm, tasted in Montevideo.
It's been a long time since I took this photo and I just hadn't managed to publish it yet.
This is a South American food, the heart of a certain type of palm that is cut into pieces and preserved in oil or vinegar.
I've eaten it several times in Brazil even though the photo was taken at the Mercado in Montevideo.

Land appetizers: ham, mozzarella and vegetables

antipasto di terra

Land appetizers: ham, mozzarella and vegetables.
A nice plate of mixed land appetizers.
Raw ham, aubergines, potatoes, carrots, courgettes, tomatoes, broccoli and, of course, the inevitable centre of the plate, two lovely mozzarellas!
A classic in Italian cuisine is definitely the appetizer. It is used to whet your appetite but sometimes it is so abundant and tasty (as in this case) that you basically already have an almost full stomach before starting the actual meal.
Here, in fact, the plate was really big but there were three of us and we quickly polished it off before the pizza.
