Season with Emeril’s Essence. For the salsa: In a mixing bowl, combine the star fruit slices, black beans, roasted corn, tomatoes, green onions, red peppers, and jalapenos, together. Mix thoroughly.

Stir in the juice of one lemon, 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, and garlic. Season with cumin, salt and pepper. For the cream: In a mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, juice of one lemon, 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro, passion fruit seeds, and minced passion fruit. Mix to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper. To serve, dab three small pools of the cream around the edge of the plate. Mound the salsa in the center of the plate. Place the shrimp around the salsa.

Garnish with parsley and toasted coconut. This recipe yields 4 servings.
