  • To serve:
  • Have a simple mesclun of lettuces and a simple vinaigrette set aside to mix at the last moment.
  • Heat a large skillet with peanut oil until very hot.
  • When the oil is hot (350 degrees), lay the shrimp in it and cook until golden and cooked through on each side.
  • Remove them to a plate with absorbent toweling and keep warm.
  • Spoon some of the tartar salsa onto the plate in four equidistant places.
  • Place a shrimp over the dots of salsa.

  • Whisk in the vinegar and pickling juice..
  • Gently stir in the remaining ingredients.
  • Reserve, covered and refrigerated until ready to use.
  • Yield 1 1/2 cups
  • *RAW EGG WARNING
  • Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness.
  • To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.
  • Mash the raw garlic, chilies, salt and cumin together in a mortar with the pestle until fairly smooth.
  • Scrape this into a bowl and set aside a moment.
  • Heat the olive oil until fairly hot and pour it over the garlic chilies mix and allow to stand 10 minutes.
  • Now whisk in the sour orange juice and the vinegar.
