Equipment

  • Oven
  • Pan/Stove
  • Mini Muffin Tin

Ingredients
  

  • 300 Grams Raw Shrimp Peeled, Cleaned and Cut into 3 pieces
  • 5-6 Cloves Garlic Minced
  • 113 Grams Salted Butter (1/2 stick)
  • 1 Half Avocado
  • 1 Package Egg Roll Wrapper (wonton wrapper is fine too)
  • 1 Tsp Sesame Oil
  • 1/2 Tsp Chili Flakes (chili can be used but will be a little bit spicier)
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1/2 Tsp Pepper
  • 1/2 Tsp White Sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 F.
  • Cut your wonton wrappers into 3" by 3" squares. Place each square into the muffin tin and spread the sides to create an opening in the centre.
  • Bake wrappers for 10 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Take all the seasonings and place them in the bowl of shrimp to marinate for a few minutes.
  • Once the wonton wrappers are done, take them out of the oven and let cool.
  • Now, heat your pan on medium/high heat.
  • Melt the 1/2 stick of butter and garlic cloves.
  • Once the garlic is nice and fragrant, cook shrimp for about 4-6 Minutes and turn off stove. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp as it turns rubbery. You can turn off the stove early to avoid this and let the shrimp cook in the residual heat.
  • Let the shrimp cool and cut your avocado open.
  • Now that everything has cooled down, it is time to assemble! In each wonton wrapper, add a spoon full of the cooked shrimp and scoop out a bit of avocado to place on top. Repeat, serve and enjoy!
