We usually call it sour shrimp keueng, which means spicy and sour shrimp, made from shrimp cooked using natural spices such as cayenne pepper, turmeric, shallots, sunti acid, and I also add pieces of starfruit.
The characteristic of this dish is the starfruit. If there is no starfruit, it cannot be called Asam Keeung soup, because the soup is not sour.
This Asam Keeung Shrimp is cooked almost every day by my mother and I, because this is a typical dish in my area for our daily cooking at home. If my mother or I buy shrimp, we definitely cook some of it as Asam Keeung Shrimp, and I fry the rest crispy for my child to eat. Because he can't eat food that is a little spicy.
and today I will cook Asam Keeung shrimp again for the umpteenth time, because this is the first time I have posted this dish,
Okay, are you curious about how I process shrimp into a dish with a very special taste? I'm sure many people like this shrimp dish, hehe, because it is really delicious.
Materials used
500 grams of fresh shrimp
5 cloves of shallots
1 clove of garlic
1 thumb of turmeric
1/2 tsp coriander
7 cayenne peppers
7 tamarinds
7 starfruits
5 large green chilies
5 peppercorns
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 lime
Cooking procedure
First
First of all, I marinate the shrimp with salt and lime, then I stir until well mixed, I let the shrimp sit for a while so that the salt and lime can be absorbed, then I blend the fine spices, namely cayenne pepper, coriander, turmeric, onion, pepper, tamarind, and garlic
