For 4 people
Ingredients:
- 16 shrimp
For the teriyaki sauce:
- 100 ml Kikkoman soy sauce (green lid)

- ½ garlic clove
- 50 ml rice wine vinegar (Mirin)
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional)
preparation
Teriyaki sauce:
- For the teriyaki sauce, add soy sauce, mirin and sugar to a pan and bring to a boil.
- Chop the garlic and ginger into very small, fine pieces and add them to the pan. Once everything has reduced by half, you can optionally add a little cornstarch dissolved in water.
Fry shrimp:
- Peel the shrimp, leaving the head and tail intact.
- Heat the contact grill plate (plancha).
- Now coat the shrimp with the teriyaki sauce and fry the shrimp on each side for about 1-2 minutes.
- Serve the remaining teriyaki sauce on the plate with the shrimp to your guests.
Chef’s tip:
Soak the shrimp in the teriyaki sauce for 15 minutes before frying so that the flavor of the sauce is absorbed even better into the shrimp.
Optionally, you can season the shrimp with a little Espelette or cayenne pepper before frying. This will make them taste even better.
