Langoustine in Garlic/pepper sauce

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds of peeled/cleaned Langoustine tails

  • 1 head of peeled garlic - minced

  • 1 inch of peeled fresh ginger

  • 1 tablespoon of whole black pepper

  • 4 dried whole red chilis

  • 2 tablespoon of fresh grated coconut

  • 1 large peeled/thinly sliced white onion

  • 2 tablespoons of Organic sprouted pumpkin seeds

  • 1 tablespoon of Sesame oil

  • ½ teaspoon of Organic ground turmeric

  • 2 cups of fresh peas


Directions:

  • Slightly toast the black pepper and grind along with coconut and pumpkin seeds to a fine paste, add water to make sure that this is not too thick.

  • In a large wide nonstick pan, heat the sesame oil over moderate heat and add the dried chilis, onions, garlic, ginger, and turmeric, and sauté until lightly brown.

  • At this point, increase the heat to high and then add the Langoustines to ensure that they sear quickly without stewing in the mixture.

  • Add the ground mixture and continue to cook until the mixture thickens and after all ingredients are fully cooked, add the fresh peas and cook further.

  • Serve with your favorite Rice, Quinoa, Bulgur, Polenta, Roti, or Bread side-dish.
