Shrimp Baked in Sour Cream Sauce
Description
Suitable for both holidays and everyday meals. Seafood always looks great on the table—they are elegant and incredibly delicious. Shrimp are one of the most affordable seafood options, which is why they are so popular and in demand. Sour cream sauce nicely highlights their slightly sweet flavor and adds juiciness. 1. My shrimp are frozen. Without thawing, I boil them in salted water for about 2-3 minutes. I drain the water and cool the shrimp, then peel them. 2. I cut the shrimp into pieces, leaving a few whole for garnish. 3. I pour a little of the water in which the shrimp were cooked into a glass, add flour and mix until the consistency of thin sour cream, then add 4 more tablespoons of the cooking liquid. 4. To the flour mixture I add sour cream and mayonnaise, salt, and mix until smooth. 5. I put the chopped shrimp with chopped herbs into special small baking molds, pour the sour cream sauce over them, then place whole shrimp on top and sprinkle with cheese grated on a coarse grater. 6. I bake in an oven preheated to 180°C for about 15 minutes. I serve the dish hot. It can also be served warm or chilled.
