What You Need

7 oz (200 g) spinach
12 large shrimp
20 fiddleheads
2 oz (60 g) Canadian Cream cheese
7 oz (200 ml) plain yogurt
1 3/4 cups (430 ml) milk
Salt
1/3 cup (80 ml) olive oil
2/3 oz (20 g) butter
Pepper
1 1/2 tbsp (25 ml) hazelnut oil

Put butter in hot non-stick frying pan and stir fry shrimp for a few minutes. Sprinkle with pepper and keep warm.

Pour spinach gazpacho in a deep bowl and garnish with spinach leaves. Arrange shrimp, fiddleheads, and hazelnuts on a platter. Sprinkle with a few drops of hazelnut oil.
