Rice Salad with Coconut Shrimps/Salata od riže i kozice s kokosom

My gastro journey to Asia is more and more often and last weekend I made this simple and aromatic dish. Just perfect for hot summer days. Just drunk shrimps in egg white and coconut than bake in oven. It is so delicious, that you need only perfect dip! And I have it too! It is simple and it goes perfectly with coconut shrimps. Mix sesame oil with fresh chili (and seeds), chopped coriander and finely grated ginger. As balance, serve with rice salad (brown and wild rice) mixed with coriander seeds, snow peas and peas. As well as with refreshing cucumber salad seasoned with olive oil, fresh mint and spring onion. As 3 books of Asian recipes are waiting for me, sorry my friend, I suppose you will have to travel with me through beautiful, spicy, aromatic and colorful dishes.

-Croatian version-

Moji izleti u azijsku kuhinju sve su češći, pa je tako nastalo i ovo jednostavno i prefino jelo. Kao stvoreno za vruće ljetne dane. Kozice uvaljane u bjelanjak pa u kokos te kratko pečene u pećnici nešto je najfinije što sam u zadnje vrijeme jela. Neizostavno uz njih ide jednostavan umak od sezamovog ulja s čilijem (i sjemenkama ako volite ekstra ljuto), svježeg, fino ribanog đumbira i korijandera. Eksplozija okusa! Salata od smeđe i divlje riže začinjena sjemenkama korijandera kratko preprženih uz blanširane mlade grašak mahune i grašak na jednoj i klasična salata od krastavaca uz mentu i limun, savršeni su balans u ovome jelu. S obzirom da me na policama čekaju 3 knjige azijskih jela, vidim da ću vas još neko vrijeme ”ljutiti” ovim pikantnim i egzotičnim okusima!
