SPICY GOAN SHRIMP CURRY WITH EGGPLANT
Taken from Ruta Kahate's "5 Spices, 50 dishes" and not modified in any way - this is the best curry I have ever eaten and had to share it with you. If you have a chance to buy Ruta's book do so - it is the best cookbook I have ever bought and the only cookbook I have done every recipe out of, it's just that amazing. A few notes: -- DO use seeds and finely grind them in a mortar and pestle - the flavors aren't quite the same if you use already ground spices. If you can't find seeds, then substitute it in the same quantities. -- If your family isn't keen on tough eggplant skins, you can peel them. -- Eggplants go from "undercooked and spongy" to "just well done pefection" to plain mush in a very short period of time. Watch them closely. We want a tofu consistency. -- Tomato sauce can be used in place of the small tomato in a pinch. About 1/3-1/2 cup will do. -- If you like less spicy, cut down on cayenne pepper. The Serranos actually cook down and taste like a bell pepper when done.

Steps:
- Slice the eggplants lengthwise in half and then crosswise into 1-inch chunks.
- Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and saute the onion until softened.
- Add tomato,garlic,cayenne,coriander,cumin, turmeric, and saute until the tomato has completely disintegrated. If necessary, deglaze the pan by adding a few tablespoons of water and using a spatula to loosen the browned bits if the mixture starts sticking to the bottom.
- Add eggplants, chilies and salt, and mix well.
- Cover and cook over low heat until eggplant is soft, about 10 minutes.
- Add shrimp and stir gently,.
- When shrimp begins to turn pink, add coconut milk and water. Continue simmering, uncovered, until shrimp is cooked through, another 5-8 minutes.
- Very gently stir in the vinegar and remove from heat.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
- This curry tastes even better the next day just reheat gently over low heat stirring carefully once in a while until just warmed to prevent overcooking the shrimp.
- Serve with any plain rice or quinoa - my favorite.

Tips:
- Choose the right shrimp: For the best results, use large, fresh shrimp that are peeled and deveined. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the shrimp, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them tough.
- Cook the shrimp until they are just opaque: Shrimp cook very quickly, so it's important to cook them until they are just opaque. Overcooking will make them tough and rubbery.
- Use a good quality curry paste: The curry paste is the key to a flavorful curry. Choose a paste that is made with fresh, high-quality ingredients.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the spices: The amount of spices in a curry can be adjusted to taste. If you like a mild curry, use less spice. If you like a spicy curry, use more spice.

Spicy shrimp curry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. Be sure to follow the tips above to ensure that your curry turns out perfectly.
