Recipe : Kisah Seafood Ramadhan with Fiesta Seafood

Just admit it, we all love fast and fried food isn't it? Sometimes, cooking really takes much of our time. Not when you do the 'cooking' part, but I mean is the preparation and post-cooking ( cleaning!!! ) part ! Life would be better if I got people who can do the prep and cleaning part just like on all of those cooking TV show :p  But yeah, sometime we can't resist a simple and fast option, frozen food! 

 I'm already familiar with all Fiesta's products. Their chicken taste great! But it's a first time for me to try Fiesta Seafood, a new range of their seafood's products. And I just know that they also held an interesting event during this Ramadhan month,  Kisah Seafood Ramadhan ! So what we have to do is just following the recipe that Chef Arnold Poernomo's did, you can see his recipes HERE. With grand total of IDR 30 Millions, I just think ... why not? Usually we eat frozen food just the way it is. Defrost, fried and eat. But isn't that interesting if you actually can mix it with another dishes ? ;D

Me and my friends with Chef Arnold ;D

So for the appetizer I chose a recipe from Week 3, Shrimp Roll with Mango Salsa. To be honest, at first I'm a bit skeptical with this recipe. I was thinking.... hmmm... is this gonna work or not. But apparently, it works! :p The savory and crunch taste from Fiesta's Shrimp Roll was quite nice to mix with the sour and sweet Mango Salsa. Yum! If you think my recipe good enough, please help me to VOTE for my recipe here ! ;D
