HOW TO PREPARE RICE WITH SHRIMP:
Cook the shrimp in a saucepan with water seasoned with salt, an unpeeled small onion and a bunch of coriander. When the shrimp is cooked, drain with a skimmer and let cool slightly. Reserve the cooking water, peel the shrimp and set aside.
Place the olive oil, the chopped garlic, the chopped onion, the red pepper sauce and the peeled tomatoes cut into small pieces in a saucepan and cook over low heat until the tomato start to break down. Add the rice and the shrimp and season with a little salt. Pour the shrimp cooking water (enough water to completely cover the mixture), stir and boil over medium-high heat. When the water starts boiling, reduce to low heat and cook for 10 to 12 minutes. Turn off the heat, sprinkle with chopped coriander and serve.
