1. First of all, we clean the shrimp from the shells, remove the esophagus.

2. Tomatoes are washed, we make cross-shaped incisions on the skin, pour them with steep boiling water, then without hesitation we lower them into ice vodka. After these manipulations, it is very easy to remove the skin from the tomato.

3. Peel the onion and garlic, chop with a knife. Chili pepper is also finely chopped. Tomatoes are cut into large cubes.
