Talk about seafoods and shrimp will definitely one of the top 5 mentions. It’s one of my favourite, however I do not eat that often as it is high in cholesterol content. But whenever I cook, halabos is the easiest way to do it. All you need for this recipe are:
- > 1/2 kg medium sized shrimps, cleaned
- > 100 ml sprite, at room temperature
- > 3 tablespoons EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil)
- > 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- > Salt & pepper
- Put the shrimp in a shallow pan, add the sprite, sprinkle with some salt & pepper.
- Cook for about 3 minutes in the liquid or until the shrimp turns pinkish. Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
- Remove the remaining liquid in the pan. Add the EVOO and sauté the garlic. (Butter can be used instead of EVOO but I just feel healthy using the latter)
- Put back the shrimp and sauté for another 3 minutes.
- Serve with tomato slices or soy sauce with a bit of lemon juice.
