Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons coriander seed
2 tablespoons mustard seed
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon dill weed
1 tablespoon allspice
1 tablespoon salt
3 dried bay leaves
3 qt water
8 small red skin potatoes
3 ears corn, cut into thirds
4 smoked sausages, such as kielbasa, cut into rounds
2 lb shell-on shrimp
Juice of 1 lemon
fresh parsley, chopped
1 cup cocktail sauce, to serve
butter, melted, to serve

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the coriander seeds, mustard seeds, red pepper flakes, dill weed, allspice, salt, and bay leaves.
  • Add the spice mix to a large pot with 3 quarts of water, then add the potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes.
  • Add the corn and boil for 10 minutes. Add the sausage and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • Remove a potato from the pot and check to see if it's fully cooked. If not, continue to cook them until the potatoes are done.
  • Stir in the shrimp and lemon juice. Place the lid on the pot and cook for 3 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
  • Drain the ingredients from the pot. Serve the shrimp boil on a newspaper-lined table, sprinkled all over with parsley, with cocktail sauce and garlic butter on the side.
  • Enjoy!
