Shrimp Roast on a Pepper Boat.

This is a beautifully crafted dish balanced with mouth-watering flavors and eye pleasing plating. I participated in a Bengal based food competition – the ask was to make a Fish/Sea Food recipe and this one won the 1st Prize in the competition. Folks who have tried this one, have loved it too, do try this at your home and let us know. It might look tricky but is actually pretty simple to cook.
