Ingredients
2 cups peeled peel-and-eat baby shrimp. (Buy the smallest shrimp available–about 50 shrimp per pound.)
Juice from 1/2 lemon
2 tablespoons minced dill
2 tablespoons minced red onion
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup mayonnaise
4 teaspoons bleak roe (optional)
4 pieces white bread, cut round with a cookie cutter
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, add shrimp, mayonnaise, red onion, dill, and lemon juice. Fold everything together carefully. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- In a sauté pan over medium heat, add butter, let it brown, and toast the bread slices in the butter, without burning.
- Place the sautéed toasts on a tray lined with paper towels to drain off excess fat.
- Place the toasts on four plates, spoon the shrimp mixture on the toasts and top with the bleak roe (if using).
