Ingredients
Preparation
-
Prepare the pea puree: Cook the peas in a pan of boiling salted water for 5 to 10 minutes, until they are tender.
-
Drain them and run them under cold water to set their bright green color.
-
Mix them with the crème fraîche and a handful of parsley or mint until you obtain a smooth puree. Add salt and pepper to taste. Reserve.
-
Prepare the shrimp: If the shrimp are raw, steam them or in a pan with a drizzle of oil for 2 to 3 minutes until pink and opaque. If they are already cooked, proceed directly to the next step.
-
Cut them into medium-sized pieces. Add a touch of lime juice, salt, pepper and Espelette pepper or smoked paprika.
-
Prepare the mango: Peel the mango and cut it into small even cubes.
-
Assemble the tartare: In a cookie cutter, place a layer of pea puree (about 1 cm thick). Then add a layer of diced mango, packing lightly so that the tartare remains well structured. Finish with a layer of shrimp pieces. Carefully remove the cookie cutter and repeat for each plate.
-
Decorate and serve: Decorate the tartare with a few fresh mint leaves and sesame seeds to add an extra touch of elegance and freshness.
-
Serve as a starter or light dish, accompanied by a drizzle of olive oil or a splash of balsamic vinegar to enhance the flavors.
