Crevettes With Feta And Tomato Sauce

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was different and delish. First used 2 tablespoon oil, 1 to sautee the onions then 1 to sautee the shrimp(crevettes not used). Didn`t pour any on top. Used 1 cup sliced scallions for the bunch of spring onions. Didn`t have ouzo so used the same flavored liquor I got from Aruba which the only difference is it`s sweeter and its red. The feta never really melted just softened. I would be carefull when using the full amount of oil when sauting the shrimp which gets ignited. I had a full flame and used a small portion of the oil that was called for. But all in all we enjoyed this very much. Please do take note the stars are based on how I prepared it! Thanks!!!

    Crevettes With Feta and Tomato Sauce, Greek chef and restaurateur Theodore Kyriakou (widely considered to be the finest Greek chef in Britain) tells us that As soon as the first warm sunshine comes after winter and the restaurants start to put tables outside, this is their star dish As with most prawn dishes, you should start with the largest, freshest prawns you can buy Fresh prawns are glossy, they smell of the sea without a hint of ammonia and do not need rinsing This recipe is from real Greek food, which Theodore Kyriakou co-authored with food writer Charles Campion I am posting it for the 2005 Zaar World Tour You may want to use Theodore Kyriakou’s Tomato Sauce Recipe #142236, when making this recipe , This was different and delish First used 2 tablespoon oil, 1 to sautee the onions then 1 to sautee the shrimp(crevettes not used) Didn`t pour any on top Used 1 cup sliced scallions for the bunch of spring onions Didn`t have ouzo so used the same flavored liquor I got from Aruba which the only difference is it`s sweeter and its red The feta never really melted just softened I would be carefull when using the full amount of oil when sauting the shrimp which gets ignited I had a full flame and used a small portion of the oil that was called for But all in all we enjoyed this very much Please do take note the stars are based on how I prepared it!
