How To Make grilled shrimp with harissa

• 1

  Start by cleaning and deveining the shrimp. Leave a little of the tail on for a handle. This is a finger food after all. When deveining try not to cut too deep. We don't want these butterflied.

  Turn on the grill to medium high heat. Mix shrimp, olive oil, harissa and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Toss to cover everything.

  Grill the shrimp for about 2 minutes on each side. Shrimp are done when they go from translucent and spoungy to white and firm. Do not overcook the shrimp. That would be a shame.

  Remove the shrimp to a plate and let cool. This is a cold dish. When ready to serve coarsly chop the basil and cilantro. Put the shrimp, cilantro,basil and thinly sliced radishes into a large bowl and toss with a little pepper and another pinch of salt.

  If you don't like really hot things reduce the amount of harissa a little, maybe down to 2 tabelspoons. If you don't like radishes this works well with thinly sliced jicama too or if you are feeling really adventerous try blanched and cooled celery root julienned.
