The traditional drowned sandwich is usually filled with carnitas, pork loin, or leg, but how about enjoying this dish filled with shrimp? Accompany this drowned sandwich with two different sauces, one very spicy and the other tomato-based. Enjoy it with its traditional bread, the birote.

For the tomato sauce, heat the water in a pot until it boils, add the tomatoes, and cook for 8 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Blend the tomatoes with the onion, garlic, tomato puree, pepper, cumin, and marjoram until fully integrated. Cook for 8 minutes over medium-low heat in a hot pot, add the water, and season with salt. Keep warm until use. For the hot sauce, in a pot with boiling water, cook the chiles for 3 minutes. Drain and reserve a cup of the cooking water. Blend the chiles with the garlic, whole pepper, cloves, sesame, marjoram, white vinegar, one cup of the cooking water from the chiles, and enough salt. Strain and reserve until use. Assemble the sandwich. Cut the birote but be careful not to separate the bread into two pieces, that is, without finishing the cut. Spread with mayonnaise, add avocado, and fill with shrimp; close. Place the sandwich in a deep plate, pour over the tomato sauce, and garnish with pickled red onion. Enjoy with hot sauce to taste.
