Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients in advance: This will help you save time and ensure that everything is ready when you need it.
  • Use a good quality curry paste: This will make a big difference to the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you add too much shrimp to the pan at once, it will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque: Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
  • Add vegetables and coconut milk: This will add flavor and creaminess to your curry.
  • Simmer for a few minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve with rice or naan: This will help you soak up all of the delicious sauce.
