Potted Shrimp
Report
Potted Shrimp, a fantastic seafood appetizer for every party or celebration. This is no ordinary starter, but a rather fancy one that goes down a treat on those special days when you want to impress your posh guests. Made with cooked shrimp, and flavoured with garlic, lemon juice, spring onions, fresh parsley and dill, the shrimp is then covered with melted butter which sets beautifully to create the most delicious dish you can possibly get. Serve it with bread for the best experience.
