Categories     appetizer

Yield About 20 shrimp

Number Of Ingredients 13

Peanut or vegetable oil, for frying
1/4 cup cornstarch
3 large egg whites
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups flaked coconut
1 1/2 pounds jumbo shrimp, peeled with tails on
Red Curry Sauce, recipe follows
1 green onion, white and green part, chopped
1 handful fresh mint, hand-torn
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
1 lime, juiced

Steps:

  • Heat 3 inches of oil in a large deep skillet or heavy pot to 325 degrees F.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch, egg whites, salt, and pepper until foamy. Spread the coconut out in a pie dish. Dredge the shrimp with the cornstarch/egg white mixture and shake off any excess. Press the shrimp into the coconut flakes; turn shrimp over and press into coconut again to coat both sides.
  • Deep-fry the shrimp in batches until the coconut is golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the shrimp to paper towels to drain. Arrange the shrimp on a platter, serve immediately with red curry sauce and garnish with green onion and mint.
  • Place a small pot over medium heat and coat with the oil. Stir the red curry paste into the pan and fry that up until aromatic. Slowly pour in the coconut milk and continue to stir to incorporate. Add the lime juice (and 1 of the squeezed out halves for added flavor) and cook for 5 to 10 minutes to thicken. Pour the sauce into a nice serving bowl and serve with the coconut shrimp.
  • Yield: 1 cup

Coconut Flake Shrimp with Pumpkin Curry Dipping Sauce image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     appetizer

Time 53m

Yield 20 shrimp

Number Of Ingredients 14

Canola, vegetable or peanut oil for frying, as needed
2 cups cornstarch
1 cup light or regular beer, chilled
1 cup soda water, chilled
1 egg
Salt
1 1/2 cups unsweetened, shredded coconut
20 medium sized shrimp, deveined and shelled with tails left on
Bamboo skewers soaked in water for 1 hour
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
1 tablespoon curry powder
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup coconut milk, light or regular
1 lime, juiced

Steps:

  • For the shrimp:
  • Pour enough oil into a medium sized saucepan so that it is half full. Place the pot over medium to high heat until the oil reaches 340 degrees F. Meanwhile, in a medium sized mixing bowl, add the cornstarch. Stir in the beer, soda water, egg and a pinch of salt until combined. In a separate bowl, add coconut. Place shrimp, tail end first, on bamboo skewers. Dip each skewer into the cornstarch batter and then into the coconut. Fry the shrimp in the oil until the coconut is nicely browned and the shrimp are cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes. Place shrimp skewers onto a paper towel lined plate to absorb excess oil.
  • For the dipping sauce:
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the pumpkin puree, curry powder and brown sugar. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Slowly add the coconut milk and continue to cook. Lower the heat and let the ingredients simmer for about 5 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and cool. Add the lime juice and salt, to taste. Serve in a bowl alongside the coconut shrimp.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and tools you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your dish. Whenever possible, use fresh, organic produce and seafood.
  • Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a Heavy-Bottomed Pan: A heavy-bottomed pan will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the curry from sticking.
  • Add the Coconut Milk at the End: Adding the coconut milk at the end of the cooking process will help preserve its flavor and creaminess.
  • Serve with Rice or Naan: Coconut curry shrimp is traditionally served with rice or naan. You can also serve it with quinoa or your favorite side dish.

Conclusion:

Coconut curry shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With its creamy, flavorful sauce and tender shrimp, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give this coconut curry shrimp recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
