Served as appetizers for 4 – 6 people
Ingredients:
2 cucumbers
2 dozen crickets
2 Lapsang Suchong Tea bags or similar black/green tea
Kosher salt
Mango chutney (have a small jar on hand because you’ll need to use about ½ a teaspoon per cucumber slice)
Pickled ginger – sliced thin
Coconut shavings (pre-packaged)
Directions:
Prepare, boil and roast crickets. Salt to taste.
Wash, peel and slice cucumber into ½ inch thickness's.
Lay out cucumber slices atop paper towels to absorb moisture on cookie tray.
Place slice of pickled ginger neatly atop each cucumber slice.
Place a small dollop of mango chutney atop the pickled ginger.
Place one or two crickets atop the mango chutney and add a bit more mango chutney to cover cricket(s).
Place in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
Remove each slice from cookie tray to serving tray.
Lightly sprinkle several coconut shavings on top of each slice, let some coconut fall on serving tray to add subtle visual tension and texture.
Serve chilled.
