Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons salted butter
1 1/2 pounds peeled and deveined raw shrimp (I used U10, but any size is fine)
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium onion, finely diced
1 tablespoon curry powder
One 13 1/2-ounce can coconut milk (I used A Taste of Thai brand)
2 tablespoons honey, or more to taste
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, or more to taste
Juice of 1 lime, or more to taste
12 fresh basil leaves, chopped, plus more for garnish
Hot sauce, as needed, optional
Cooked basmati rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the butter in a large skillet (I used nonstick) over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook, turning them over halfway through, until fully cooked, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
  • Add the garlic and onions to the skillet and stir to cook for 2 minutes. Sprinkle the curry powder over the onions and continue cooking, stirring, for another couple of minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and pour in the coconut milk, stirring to combine. Add the honey, salt and lime juice, and allow the sauce to heat up until bubbling gently. Add the shrimp to the sauce, tossing to coat, and allow it to simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste the sauce and add more salt, lime juice or honey, depending on your taste. Stir in the basil. (Add hot sauce if you want a little kick.)
  • Serve the shrimp and sauce over a bed of cooked basmati rice, garnishing with more basil. Delicious!

VEGETABLE AND FRUIT CURRY OVER BASMATI RICE



Vegetable and Fruit Curry over Basmati Rice image

This is a delightful, rather sweet curry that everyone seems to really love. It is vegan-friendly, but adding leftover shrimp works nicely, too. I've even used leftover turkey after Thanksgiving, and topped it with cranberry chutney! For a hotter curry, use cayenne instead of black pepper.

Provided by 2hot2handle

Categories     Curries

Time 1h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs shrimp (raw, peeled and deveined, tail on)
4 tablespoons butter (1/2 stick)
1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
4 tablespoons curry powder
1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 (14 ounce) can whole tomatoes
1 (14 ounce) can light coconut milk
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large, deep saute pan and add the onion. Cook on low heat until the onion is translucent, about 15 minutes. Add the curry powder and continue cooking on low heat for 15 minutes, stirring regularly as curry forms a paste. Add the lemon juice and stir.
  • Add the tomatoes, cutting them up once they are in the pan. Add half the juice from the can and save the remainder. Continue cooking the tomatoes and onions another 15 minutes on low heat.
  • Add 1/4 of the coconut milk and stir. Add enough coconut milk and the remaining tomato juice until you like the consistency of the curry base. Simmer this mixture for another 15 minutes.
  • Bring the curry base to a boil and add the shrimp. Stir constantly for about 6-8 minutes to ensure the shrimp are fully cooked. Taste and add salt, if needed. Serve over white or brown rice.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling later on.
  • Choose the Right Shrimp: Fresh shrimp is always the best choice, but frozen shrimp can also be used. If using frozen shrimp, be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Use a Heavy-Bottomed Pan: A heavy-bottomed pan will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the shrimp from sticking.
  • Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so it's important to not overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
  • Serve Immediately: Coconut curried shrimp is best served immediately after it is cooked. The rice can be made ahead of time, but the shrimp should be cooked just before serving.

Conclusion:

Coconut curried shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The shrimp is cooked in a creamy coconut curry sauce and served over basmati rice. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
