Apple and Shrimp Salad

This salad is the perfect snack on a hot summer's day. But you can enjoy it on cold days too. You can either use fresh or frozen shrimp, any which way you like. The title is straightforward but you can easily take it up a notch and use fancy words. I prefer it plain. But it's delicious!

Ingredients

  • 1 kg peeled, deveined and cooked medium-large shrimps (poach in simmering salted water with thin slices of ginger, pepper, and a glove of garlic peeled and bruised)
  • 3 medium-large sized fiji apples (or any kind of apple in season), peeled, cored, quartered and sliced thinly cross ways
  • half a medium sized white onion (chopped finely)
  • 1 medium sized cucumber (sliced thinly, marinated in half a teaspoon salt for 5 minutes, and then squeezed of all its liquid)
  • 2 heaped tablespoon sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tablespoon light brown sugar
  • 3-4 heaping tablespoon organic mayonnaise
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • optional: sliced hard-boiled eggs and chopped chives

Method

Serves: 4-6

  1. Drain shrimps, cool completely, and place in large mixing bowl. Discard ginger slices and bruised garlic clove.
  2. Mix in the other ingredients gently until well combined. I prefer to use a long wooden spoon for this.
  3. Carefully strew the pieces of cucumber and mix gently with the clean handle of your wooden spoon, just enough to disperse it all throughout the salad.
  4. Chill for at least two hours.
