Ingredients
- Carrot chutney:
- 8 bunches of carrots, peeled and cut slantwise in slices of 3 mm thick, blanched al dente
- 2 shallots, finely cut
- Juice of 2 Florida oranges
- 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
- 1 tablespoon ginger syrup
- For the steamed shrimp:
- 3-4 big shrimp (Black Tigers) per person, peeled and cut in half, length wise
- 1 cup white Florida grapefruit juice
- 2 fresh bay leaves, torn in two
- 1 clove of garlic, in slices
- Sabayon:
- 6 egg yolks
- Shredded peel and juice of a red Florida grapefruit
- 1/4 cup white port
- 1 little bundle of rucola, washed
Directions
- Carrot chutney:
- Fry the shallots in vegetable oil until they are glace. Add the orange juice, sherry vinegar and ginger syrup; let it concentrate to a syrup. Add the carrots and let it softly heat for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Shrimp:
- Boil the juice of white grapefruits with bay leaves and garlic in a steamer. Keep the juice just under boiling level. Put the shrimp in the steamer and hang it above the grapefruit juice. Put on the lid. Let the shrimp steam for 4-5 minutes until they are almost done, then turn off the heat.
- Sabayon:
- Meanwhile, beat up the sabayon. Set out a pan with a fitting bowl (au bain Marie), fill the bowl with one third of water and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat. Beat the egg yolks with port, juice and shredded peel of red grapefruit in a bowl. Put the bowl on the pan with almost boiling water and keep stirring (5 -7 minutes) until a light and firm foamy sauce appears. Flavor with salt and pepper to taste. Remember to keep stirring, because otherwise, you will end up with scrambled eggs!
- Finishing off: Mix the ruccola with carrots. Now, fill up cocktail glasses with shrimp, divide rucola and carrot into the glasses, and cover with sabayon.
