Bunch of fresh dill, chopped finely

For the purpose of the King's Day celebration she wanted to try out a few new recipes for snacks that she could serve to their guests or alternatively that could serve as a light summer dinner. The boyfriend was proposing the small dutch shrimps so she looked for a recipe with them on Allerhande and altered the one she found.
Boil the egg for 8 min until hard. Peel the egg, cut into small pieces and place in a bowl. 
Meanwhile cut the top off the tomatoes and remove the seeds and sauce with a teaspoon. 
Add the sour cream, mayonnaise, ketchup, dill, shrimps and to the egg in the bowl and mix gently. Season with lemon juice, pepper and salt. Spoon the filling into the tomatoes and garnish with the remaining dill.
The second recipe was actually their intake on a delicious starter that was served in an Asian style restaurant called Leen and that they absolutely loved. Their tried their own version by mixing the dried coconut (but fresh rasped coconut was the real deal) and the coconut past with super finely chopped coriander. They seasoned the mixture with ginger syrup, ginger powder (fresh ginger was always a good option), lime juice, walnut oil and served the mix with Kroepoek shrimp puffs. Guests seem to really enjoy this snack.
Bon Appetit!
