How can I scale the servings?

Use the portion selector near the recipe title. All ingredient amounts adjust instantly so you can cook for one or for a crowd without mental math.

Do you suggest ingredient swaps?

Seasonal swap ideas and substitutions are highlighted in the step-by-step instructions, so you can use what is ripe in your kitchen garden or market.

Can I prepare parts of the recipe ahead?

Look for make-ahead notes in the steps. Many sauces, doughs and roasted vegetables can be prepared earlier and finished just before serving.

Preparation of Shrimp cocktail

Shrimps

100 g Shrimps
¼ Lemon

Marinate 100 g Shrimps with the juice from ¼ Lemon. If using raw shrimps (recognizable by their blue color), boil them briefly in salted water. When buying shrimps, you should pay attention to their origin for ecological reasons. I recommend wild-caught shrimps. If you want to be on the safe side, you can use native crayfish, but they are harder to come by.

Cocktail sauce

2 tbsp Water
2 tbsp Ketchup
25 ml Mayonnaise
½ tbsp Vinegar
¼ tsp Cognac
¼ tsp Horseradish
Pepper

Slowly stir 2 tbsp Water and ½ tbsp Vinegar into 25 ml Mayonnaise. Stir in 2 tbsp Ketchup. Add ¼ tsp Cognac, ¼ tsp Horseradish and Pepper. Stir until smooth.

Vegetables & apple

½ Apple
12.5 g Peas
1 leaf Salad

Cut ½ Apple into small cubes. Wash 1 leaf Salad and cut into strips. 12.5 g Peas defrost.

Serving

First arrange the salad, then the apples and peas and finally the shrimps on plates or in bowls. Pour over the cocktail sauce.
