This dish is so easy to make and finger lickin' good.

We made this recently and everyone enjoyed it, especially our kids. They liked the sweet and slightly salty flavor. We cooked with the shell removed to make the eating easier (mostly for the kids).Yo he cocinado/probado esta recetaEsta es una variación

This dish is simple to prepare especially if you have tamarind handy in your pantry. The slightly sweet and tangy flavors of the tamarind make the shrimps light and enjoyable.
