Directions
Make sweet potato puree and mango chutney sauce first:
To make sweet potato puree: Cook sweet potatoes in boiling water with ginger, salt and pepper. Cook until fork-tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain; whip with electric mixer. Add butter, nutmeg, and additional salt and pepper if desired. Mix until smooth.
To make mango chutney sauce: Mix mango chutney with cream in small saucepan. Bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer 5 to 10 minutes. Add lime juice and strain.
To make shrimp: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and heat oil to 350 degrees. Lightly flour shrimp. Dip in egg wash and then roll in coconut. Deep-fry in hot oil until light and golden, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Transfer to oven-proof dish and bake in preheated oven 5 to 7 minutes or until cooked through.
To serve, place sweet potatoes in middle of plate. Drizzle chutney around potatoes. Place shrimp over chutney so that they circle edge of plate. Garnish with fried sliced leeks, if desired. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
