Shrimp Adobo in Coconut Milk



Here's a Filipino recipe I've tried yesterday.  I learned this through searching recipes with coconut milk online.  I so love this recipe and I'm sure you'll love it too!

INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup white vinegar
1/4 cup water
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon finely minced garlic
20 pieces sitaw (string beans) cut into 3-inch length
patis (fish sauce) or salt to taste
1 pound large fresh shrimps, unshelled
2 twelve-ounce cans coconut milk


COOKING PROCEDURE
In a medium-sized pot, mix the following : vinegar, water, pepper, garlic and patis or salt. Add shrimps and marinade for an hour. Cook in the same pot with the lid off, turning the shrimps often until the almost dry. Add the string beans and coconut milk. Allow the sauce to thicken.

Good for two servings.
