Nutritional values
The potatoes in this recipe help your body absorb the protein from the shrimp. Shrimp is a great source of iodine, the mineral that supports the healthy functioning of the thyroid gland. Sorrel also helps stimulate the appetite and purifies the blood.
When the season for sorrel is over, replace the tender leaves with arugula or spinach.

Preparation steps

Scrub potatoes thoroughly. Cook in a pot of boiling salted water until knife-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain, rinse and peel while still warm. When potatoes are cool enough to handle, halve potatoes.

Meanwhile, peel the onion and cut into rings, about 1/2 inch thick.

Rinse cherry tomatoes, drain and halve.

Rinse sorrel well, spin dry and cut into very thin strips.

Slit shrimp along the backs with a sharp knife or kitchen scissors to devein. Rinse shrimp, pat dry and season with salt, pepper and red-pepper flakes. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a pan. Cook shrimp until seared, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from pan.

Heat the remaining oil in the pan. Add halved potatoes and the onion rings and cook until golden brown, 4-5 minutes.

Add cherry tomatoes and cook until softened, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.

Return shrimp to the pan and warm through over low heat. Mix in sorrel and serve immediately.
