Gambas al Ajillo
Pane-bistecca
Gambas al Ajillo are very simple and quick garlic shrimp. They are an indispensable part of Spanish cuisine.
This quick dish is a classic tapa that is served very often in Spain. Shrimp are readily available, as Spain is a country with coastlines. Here, too, there are many ways to cook them. They are often served swimming in olive oil sauce, which is good, but not really super healthy.
Mine are not quite as oily, but they do contain a lot of garlic. I served them with chili oil for those who like it really hot.
This tapas dish is also part of Volkermampft’s culinary world tour, which is traveling to Spain this month.
