Grilled Shrimp With Tomato Jam (Moroccan)

Grilled Shrimp With Tomato Jam (Moroccan)


1. Melt butter in a saucepan over moderately high head. Add ginger and garlic and stir until fragrant. Add vinegar, optional sherry and cinnamon stick and stir until it resembles a glaze (one minute or so). Stir in tomatoes, sugar, cumin, cayenne and cloves. Reduce to low and simmer about 1 hour, until liquid has evaporated. Discard the cinnamon.

2. Stir in honey, salt and black pepper. Use a food processor or blender and puree, if you you like. Let cool.

3. Light a grill or preheat the broiler.

4. Cover shrimp with 1/3 - 1/2 of the COOLED tomato jam and marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature. Set the remaining jam aside.

5. Grill shrimp for about 2 minutes per side. They should be lightly charred on the outside and opaque throughout.

6. Spoon extra jam over shrimp to taste.
