Italian Shrimp gravy with rice/pasta


Whats nice than a yummy gravy with rice.. This one is a recipe I deciphered after having dinner with an Italian friend of mine. Never knew that making Italian day to day dining would be so easy.

Ingredients :
All you need is butter/margarine, 3 garlic cloves , uncooked shrimps, tomato puree, salt ,Bruschetta Italian dressings, Italian seasoning with thyme, rosemary, oregano and basil.

Recipe :
Personally I feel nothing can replace the taste that is provided by butter , but on the health factor I liked to replace butter with Margarine.
1.Heat a teaspoon of  Margarine in a skillet and fry grated garlic in it till golden brown.
2.Add thawed shrimps and toss gently, sprinkle a little salt and you just have to cook them for a minute.
3.Now add around 3 tablespoons of Bruschetta Italian salad dressing and toss shrimps again.
4.Add a cup of tomato puree or diced/squashed tomatoes and cook covered for a minute.
5.Add hot water and cook for a minute again and then add a little zesty ranch in it just to make the gravy look thicker.
6.Garnish it with Italian seasoning and decorate it with a cilantro tripod.
7.Serve hot in a bowl, alongside rice or freshly boiled pasta.


Enjoy the 15 minute meal and keep experimenting !!
