-
Cook the green beans for a few
minutes and rinse under cold water so they keep their
colour. Dice.
-
Rinse the shrimps and dry well
on kitchen paper. Mix the shrimps with the diced beans,
chopped parsley, diced chilli or red pepper, lemon juice,
1 tablespoon of the extra virgin olive oil, and pepper.
Leave to marinate for a few minutes.
-
Toast the bread and, while it
is still warm, rub with the cut side of the garlic, if
using. Place
the toasts on plates on top of some salad leaves, if
using, and spoon over the shrimp mixture.
-
Finally drizzle over thee
remaining oil and serve straight away.
-
For best results try to find
the tiny shrimps which the French call "grey shrimps" or
the ones the English use in potted shrimp recipes. You can serve
these as nibbles at a party. Serves 2 as a starter or a
light lunch.
