Shrimp and Avocado Stir Fry with Yuzu Pepper Shrimp and Avocado Stir Fry with Yuzu Pepper
I wanted to create an appetizer that could be made quickly and went with beer and was Japanese-flavored and spicy. So I came up with this recipe. I love yuzu pepper so I added it to a standard formula for Japanese-style flavoring.Use whatever type of shrimp you like. The photo shows Taisho shrimp.If the shrimp are big, cut into 2-3 cm pieces, about the same size as the avocado cubes.During Step 1, if you're using frozen shrimp, or feel that the shrimp you're using are not the freshest, marinate in sake. (If the shrimp are fresh you can omit this step.) Recipe by Mawaru7 cookpad.japan
