Now that we have the shrimp clean and they are super fresh, without the tail and without the shell, it is time to go find the ingredients that will make this dish your favorite.

Ingredients:

• Olive oil to taste
• ½ onion
• Salt and pepper
• ¼ cup of sugar
• 1 cup of water
• ½ kilogram of medium shrimp
• 2 cloves of peeled garlic
• Ground chipotle pepper to taste

• White wine
• Chipotle sauce to taste

Preparation

1. Bring the tamarind to a boil in the water, remove the skin and seeds first. When it starts to boil, add the sugar. Stir until the consistency is smooth.
2. Let the mixture cool and then grind it in a blender with the chipotle pepper and white wine. It depends on how spicy you like it, that's what you can add from the chipotle sauce.
3. In a frying pan, heat the olive oil and then add the garlic with the onion (chopped). When the onion begins to look shiny and transparent, that's when you should add the tamarind sauce.
4. Mix and move constantly, try it to season with salt or chipotle and let it heat for a few minutes.
5. The shrimp are coming! Prepare another pan with olive oil, season the shrimp and cook. They will start to change color to a more pinkish hue. Flip them when they're done so they can fry on both sides.
6. Remove the shrimp from the pan and serve on a plate, put the tamarind sauce we prepared on top and that's it.
