    SHRIMP IN FILO PASTRY


    Source of Recipe


    GOODIES CAFE

    Recipe Introduction


    This is a recipe that I have carried around since my days at the Queen's Inn at Stratford. Very simple but very good. Working with filo pastry takes a little time but the end result is well worth the effort.

    List of Ingredients




    Large 18-20 shrimp raw with the tail on
    Filo Pastry
    Melted butter

    Recipe



    The Method
    Unwrap the filo pastry and lay out one of the sheets. Brush with butter and place another sheet on top. Repeat this once more. Cut the pastry in strips . When working with filo pastry, always keep it covered with a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out and cracking.
    Peel the shrimp leaving the tail on. Starting at the tail end begin wrapping, overlapping slightly until you reach the top of the shrimp. Set wrapped shrimp on a pan sprinkled with cornstarch. Once all have been wrapped deep fry until golden brown. Approximately 2 minutes. Serve with

    Horseradish Mayonaise
    2 eggs
    ½ lt oil
    dijon mustard
    2 tsp vinegar
    2 tsp freshly grated horseradish
    1 tsp salt
    ½ tsp pepper
    Add all of the ingredients, except the oil to a food processor. Slowly add the oil until a firm emulsion forms. Refrigerate.
