HOW TO MAKE VEGGIE FISH SAUCE
INGREDIENTS
2 - cups shredded dried seaweed
4 - cups water
3 - cloves garlic (smashed but not minced)
1 & 1/2 - Tbsp whole black peppercorns
1/2 - cup soy sauce
2 - tsp lime juice (concentrate OK)
2 - tsp lemon juice (concentrate OK)
2 - Tbs vinegar
3 - tsp sugar
1 - tsp ground ginger
1 - tsp ground garlic
1/4 - tsp chili powder
You can find the dried seaweed at just about any asian market. Personally I prefer the type that shredded kinda small versus the large sheets of seaweed. I think that when it's shredded it makes for a richer sauce.
HOW TO PREPARE VEGETARIAN FISH SAUCE
1. In a large bowl, add 2 cups dried seaweed + 4 cups water
2. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes
3. Add garlic cloves + peppercorns + soy sauce + lime juice + lime juice
+ vinegar + sugar + ginger + garlic powder + ginger + chili powder
4. Bring to a boil, turn heat down to medium and cook for 30 minutes
5. You can adjust the salt level by adding water
6. Allow to cool
7. Strain into a container
Straining it is the key. Once it's strained you can funnel it into a large water bottle, and label it "Veggie Fish Sauce" or as it's called in Vietnam "Nuoc Mam Chay" If you've ever tasted the real fish sauce (in your pre-veggie days) you can sample a tiny bit and see just how close to the real thing it really tastes. But caution...this stuff is stinky and strong! Just like the real fish sauce.

Get a jar of Bertolli Garlic and Olive Oil sauce, see the link.
Get a pound of shrimp, remove shells and clean.
Put a few tablespoons of olive oil in a heavy pan, saute five garlic cloves, thinly sliced seasoned with black pepper, garlic salt and garlic power till just soft, add the shrimp and saute till a little pink remains.
Put the Bertolli sauce in a med. pot, warm it, add a few shakes of cayenne pepper, to the taste you like, add the shrimp and garlic to the sauce. Heat till the shrimp are done. About 5 minutes.
Serve over linguine. Most delicious and easy.

Shrimp Scampi is great on pasta! You can use the recipe below and use spaghetti instead of linguine.

Swap the clams for shrimp and it's amazing! I have this almost weekly but use giant king prawns still in there shells. It's really messy and really fun!
You can't use "vegetarian" if you use shrimps, fish or other dead animals in a recipe.

Shrimp is MEAT! They are LIVING things. "Pescetarian" friendly recipe would be the word.

Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Thread shrimp onto skewers and grill 5 to 6 inches from coals for about 12 to 15 minutes, turning frequently. Remove tails if cooking under broiler.

Its a lot easier than u think. Check out epicurious.com. They have a bunch of easy recipes for the same dish. I serve with a simple spinch salad with cherry tomatos, sliced boiled eggs, sliced red onion and cucumbers with balsamic vinigerete. Oh and garlic bread. Its simple and fast. You can use spagetti if u want.
