Spicy Vindaloo Shrimp in Puff Pastry
An easy yet elegant way to serve shrimp coated in a spicy vindaloo sauce, nestled in a puff pastry well.
Ingredients
- 1 heet (245g) puff pastry
- 1 jar vindaloo simmer sauce spicy, Maya Kaimal brand
- 24 Shrimp cooked
- 1 tablespoon cilantro optional, chopped
Instructions
Prepare the puff pastry:
- The night before, defrost the frozen puff pastry in the refrigerator.
- Roll out the defrosted puff pastry on a lightly floured counter to about ⅛th" thickness.
- Use a pizza cutter or a sharp knife to cut out 24 even squares, about 2" across in diameter.
- Place each cut-out square into the well of a mini muffin tin (you may need to do this in 2 batches if you only have 1 tin).
- Add a couple pie weights to each well prior to baking (this will ensure that the puff pastry doesn't puff up too much).
- Bake at 375°F/191°C for 15 minutes, until golden and puffy.
- Remove from the oven and carefully take out the pie weights.
- Return to the oven for another 5 minutes (without the pie weights) for even browning.
- Remove from the oven and place the puffs onto a cooling rack.
Heat the sauce:
- Pour Maya Kaimal Spicy Vinadloo Simmer Sauce into small pot and bring to a simmer over low heat, for about 5 minutes.
- Remove the saucepot from heat.
Assemble:
- Add about 1 teaspoon of sauce to the puff pastry.
- Dip the shrimp into the sauce, and place it into the cavity of the puff pastry.
- Repeat with the remaining.
- Place onto a serving tray or platter.
- Sprinkle with chopped cilantro (if using).
- Serve immediately.
