Original Garlic Chilli Shrimp Recipe (Gambas Al Ajillo)

Which Casa del Abuelo is that?, I used to go in the one near Goya and it isnt that one

I love how laid back the Spanish culture is. Great to see an upload from you! Keep it up :)

Yes! James I've been on the lookout for a new video! Fantastic! Keep them coming!

Wow. So much oil.

Thanks James! Another great video from one of my favorite bars in Madrid.

Hey James ! What kind of bread is it ?

James, you are a gem and your videos are great! I feel more prepared for my Madrid trip coming up in the Sept/October.  Your Spanish is excellent btw!  I look forward to your future uploads

Excellent! I hope you got some more bread to soak up the good oil :-)

☆☆☆ .... what else?

Wow! We made the trip to La Casa del Abuelo. Javi served us, the Gambas were magnificient. We did not have a bad meal in Madrid! On the train to Valencia right now. Looking forward to paella, then 4 nights in Barcelona!!

Cheers,

David

Genial y estupendo tu video!!

Should do more of these ?

Keep making videos mate. Love the tapas tours.

OMG! That looks so incredibly delicious! I love Olive Oil, I love Garlic and I LOVE Shrimp!!

I would love to see more recepies like this one. I might visit la Abuela this weekend myself to try the shrimp 🦐

Thanks You!!! Definitely making this recipe this weekend.

I've just made it, tasted great.Thanks

You should do more of these recipe videos!

Wow! You sound like a real spanish!

OMG!!! we love Casa del abuelo. We will be in Madrid on Wednesday so will be heading there and to Botins as well. We love both places and head there whenever we are in Madrid...

Thanks so much for this video. I had this dish at Casa del Abuelo while on a Devour tour last year and was so happy to be able to make it at home. Just made it for visiting friends who had done the Devour tour with me—brought back memories of a wonderful tour!

I do that all the time, but add just a little tomato and shrimp stock. Cousins, I would say but I shall try it like this as well. Thanks, and I enjoy your vids.

Great recipe. I love to make this and i also add Spanish paprika.

What if we don't have a cazuela? And, how much oil to use?

Looks delicious! The ugliest leather jacket I've ever seen ;-)

Paula one of your Devour guides, took us to this bar on our food tour in Madrid. The shrimp was so good maybe my favorite food item on the tour. Thank you James for doing this video I really wanted to make this after I got home. And Paula is the best. If I can still make my trip this August I am going to take the tour again. She really made the tour a great experience.

James and Jolie, I will join and pay for all on the first of May... Do to Covid-19, my account is in the minus and will be brought back up on the 1st... James Shorten Jr. :-( (jumpinjimmyjet) jimi

Thanks for the comprehensive illustration of what real Ajillo is made in Spain. Subtitle is a little bit too big, and sometimes block the scene

Quick question! What’s a pot he cooking in?

si ya...aceite de oliva, como mucho aceite de girasol, si parece agua el aceite.

U move your head and blink too much. It gives me anxiety

Will be buying one of those pots and trying this soon :)

what kind of pepper is in the plate with the olive oil? Trying to see if its a pepper that available here in California

I am going to make this now. I am considering how many shrimps should I put 6 or 12

I "discovered" this bar and its Gambas Al Ajillo on a Devour Spain tour and it was an instant favorite. On a recent trip to Europe I arranged my travels to spend one night in Madrid so I could return to Abuelo's! And Mesón del Champiñón...

I don’t see the recipe James. Hopefully no extra hidden ingredients, like lemon or sherry as some recipes use.

OMG, my favorite place in Madrid! I’d go here first thing to get this when visiting on business and have two or three:). The bar tenders and I would go back and forth buying each other beer:). I went to often they got to know me:)
