INGREDIENTS

TOMATOES

10 cocktail tomatoes

SALAD

100 g cooked, peeled Dutch shrimps

1 shallot

1/6 Granny Smith apple

1 tbsp mayonnaise

GARNISH

10 sprigs of Affilla Cress or chervil

IN ADVANCE

Ignite the charcoal in the Big Green Egg, and heat to 100°C.

Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil, and prepare a bowl of ice water. Cut a shallow X into the cocktail tomatoes, plunge them into the boiling water for 10-15 seconds, and then immediately into the ice water. Remove the skins, and set the tomatoes aside.

METHOD

Thoroughly pat the tomatoes dry all around with paper towels and place them on the Half Perforated Grid. Sprinkle half a handful of Cherry Wood Chips on the glowing charcoal, set up the convEGGtor  and insert the Stainless Steel Grid  topped with the Half Perforated Grid with the tomatoes into the EGG. Close the lid, and let the tomatoes smoke for about 15 minutes. When doing this, make sure the temperature of the EGG doesn’t rise too much, as the tomatoes don’t need to cook.

Meanwhile, for the salad, finely chop the shrimps. Peel and chop the shallot. Peel the Granny Smith apple, and remove the core. Cut the flesh into cubes of about 5 millimetres. Mix the shrimps, shallot and apple with the mayonnaise.

Remove the Half Perforated Grid with the tomatoes from the EGG. Cut the top off the tomatoes, and, using a Parisian scoop or teaspoon, remove the seeds, and fill the tomatoes with the shrimp salad. Place them on a plate, and garnish with the Affilla Cress or chervil.
