Shrimp Curry (My Dear Mudder's Version) image

Don't remember the first time I had this as a kid, but after my mother made it once, it became my requested dish every birthday. Serve with shredded sweet coconut, chopped dry-roasted peanuts, pineapple tidbits, raisins, chopped bacon, chutney, chopped egg, or chopped tomato. Because this recipe calls for condiments of choice, every plate will be customized and taste a bit different by all at the table.

WATERMELON CURRY



Watermelon Curry image

Influenced by a similar recipe in "The Great Curries of India" by Camellia Panjabi (1995), this is a dish that will astonish your guests. Since it takes less time to make the curry than it does to prepare the rice, however, you might just want to make it mid-week. Be sure to cut the watermelon into cubes that are small enough to fit whole into the mouth to avoid being messy when eating. The original recipe did not use the coconut milk and used whole cumin seed instead of ground.

CURRY INFUSED SHRIMP WITH WATERMELON RIND CHUTNEY



CURRY INFUSED SHRIMP WITH WATERMELON RIND CHUTNEY image

Categories     Garlic     Shellfish     Appetizer     Steam     Quick & Easy

Yield Makes 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Curry Infused Shrimp
24 large shrimp, peeled & deveined, tails intact
1 tsp curry powder
1/3 cup watermelon rind chutney (see recipe below)
2 cups water
Spicy Watermelon Rind Chutney
1 medium watermelon rind, peeled & finely chopped (about 4 cups)
1 1/2 cup cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups water
2 cups sugar
2 tbsp finely minced ginger root
2 tbsp finely minced jalapeno peppers, seeds & veins removed
1 tbsp finely minced garlic
1 tsp salt

Steps:

  • To Prepare the Watermelon Rind Chutney Combine all ingredients in a large pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until thickened and the watermelon rinds are translucent, about 1 hour. Allow to cool, ladle into sterilized glass jars and seal tightly. Will keep in the refrigerator for up to a month. To Prepare the Curry Infused Shrimp Combine the water and curry powder in a large steam kettle. Arrange the shrimp in tight curls on a steamer basket, place in the kettle and cover with a tight fitting lid. Bring the water to a boil and steam for about 3 to 5 minutes, just long enough for shrimp to turn pink and tender. Remove shrimp immediately and arrange on an attractive serving platter. Spoon a small dollop of chutney into the curl of each shrimp. Serve warm or chilled.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp for the best flavor. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Do not overcook the shrimp. Overcooked shrimp will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of spices to create a flavorful curry. Some common spices used in curry include cumin, coriander, turmeric, and garam masala.
  • Adjust the amount of chili peppers to your desired spice level. If you don't like spicy food, you can omit the chili peppers altogether.
  • Serve the curry with rice or your favorite bread.
  • For the watermelon rind chutney, be sure to remove the green rind from the watermelon before using. The green rind is bitter and will make the chutney taste bad.
  • Use ripe watermelon for the chutney. Unripe watermelon will not have as much flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of sugar in the chutney to your desired sweetness level.

Conclusion:

Curry-infused shrimp with watermelon rind chutney is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The curry is flavorful and fragrant, and the shrimp are cooked to perfection. The watermelon rind chutney is a sweet and tangy complement to the curry. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
