  • Egg Whites – 2, lightly beaten
  • Dry, Unsweetened Coconut – 3/4 to 1 cup
  • Jumbo Shrimp – 24, raw and shelled
  • Cucumber – 1/2
  • Scallions – 4, thinly sliced, lengthwise
  • Sesame Oil – 1 tsp

Method:

  1. Bring a large pan of water to a boil.
  2. Add the rice and cook for 25 minutes or until tender.
  3. Drain and keep in a strainer covered with a clean dish towel to absorb the steam.
  4. Soak 8 wooden skewers in cold water for 30 minutes, then drain.
  5. Crush the coriander seeds in a mortar with a pestle.
  6. Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat.
  7. Add the crushed coriander seeds and cook, turning, until they start to color.
  8. Tip onto a plate and set aside.
  9. Put the egg whites into a shallow bowl and the coconut into a separate bowl.
  10. Roll each shrimp first in the egg whites, then in the coconut.
  11. Thread onto a skewer.
  12. Repeat so that each skewer is threaded with 3 coated shrimp.
  13. Preheat the broiler to high.
  14. Using a potato peeler, peel long strips from the cucumber to create ribbons, put into a strainer to drain, then toss with the scallions and oil in a bowl, and set aside.
  15. Cook the shrimp under the preheated broiler for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until slightly browned.
  16. Mix the rice with the toasted coriander seeds and fresh cilantro.
