Shrimp Keleguen Salad

I have a lot of Filipino and Guamanian students where I teach. My wife and I went to a Cotillion ball for one of my students and just fell in love with this Chamorro shrimp and coconut salad that one of the grandmothers made. It is just crazy delicious!

Ingredients

4 lbs cooked frozen shrimp no tails or skins on

1 yellow onion diced

1 bunch green onions sliced thin

1 bag flaked coconut

2 cups lemon juice

6 thai red peppers sliced- see pictures

salt to taste


Directions

Mix everything together really well and chill. I'm sure that fresh coconut is probably better than bagged, but you are not going to get me to grate a whole coconut. I use sweetened coconut flakes because I can't find unsweetened. Seems to work OK. I'm sure you could probably substitute Asian "hot chili garlic sauce" instead of the whole peppers. I had to get my jar of peppers from the Asian Market - the sauce is much easier to find.
