Shrimp Po' Boy with Cumin Mayo

When my sister suggested this recipe to me a few years ago, my first thought was "ewww, who puts shrimp on a sandwich?"

Then I tried it. It is now my favorite way to eat shrimp (and I usually do not care for any kind of seafood).


1 lb. peeled, deveined shrimp, tails removed

1 c. buttermilk

1/2 c. flour

1 T. cajun seasoning + 1 t.

1 c. mayo

1 T. cumin

1 minced garlic clove

splash of milk

splash fresh lemon juice

vegetable oil

1 loaf french bread, cut almost through

lettuce and tomato if desired

Marinate shrimp in buttermilk and 1 T. cajun seasoning. While shrimp is marinating, mix mayo, cumin, garlic, milk and lemon juice. Set aside.

Drain shrimp well. Mix flour and 1 t. cajun seasoning. Toss shrimp with flour mixture and let sit in fridge for about 15 minutes.

Heat oil in large frypan until hot. Fry shrimp until golden brown and drain on paper towel.

Spread cumin mayo on bread, top with shrimp and lettuce and tomato if using.


Serve with your favorite side: french fries, chips, etc.
