CURRY SHRIMP AND RICE

My family and I absolutely love curry shrimp and rice. I created this version so I I can make it in a hurry. Except for the butter and shrimp, all the ingredients are right in my pantry.

SHRIMP IN YELLOW CURRY



Shrimp in Yellow Curry image

Many Thai dishes are not unlike what we call curries, but although they may contain curry powder, they are more often based on a combination of herbs and aromatic vegetables, rather than dried spices. A typical curry might feature a mixture of garlic, shallots, chiles, lime leaf, sugar and galangal (or ginger). This simplified version leaves out the lime leaf and sugar, but benefits from the addition of a couple spoonfuls of fish sauce at the end of cooking. It is brightly flavored, but blessedly easy to toss together on a weeknight.

CURRIED CHILI SHRIMP



Curried Chili Shrimp image

Categories     Blender     Food Processor     Ginger     Sauté     Quick & Easy     Coconut     Shrimp     Jalapeño     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 shallots, minced
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh gingerroot
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon minced bottled pickled jalapeño chili (wear rubber gloves)
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/8 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 small onion, sliced thin crosswise
1/2 cup thick coconut milk (from 1 coconut without any cracks and containing liquid
3/4 pound (about 12) large shrimp, shelled, leaving the tail and the first joint of the shell intact, and deveined
scallion rice as an accompaniment if desired

Steps:

  • On a work surface with the flat side of a knife mash together the shallots, the gingerroot, the garlic, and the jalapeño chili with the salt until mixture forms a coarse paste. In a heavy skillet heat the oil over moderate heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it cook the paste, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the turmeric, the curry powder, and the onion and cook the mixture over moderately low heat, stirring, for 2 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk and 1/2 cup water and simmer the mixture for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the liquid is reduced to about 1/2 cup. Add the shrimp in one layer and cook them, turning them once, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until they are just firm. Serve the shrimp mixture over the rice, tossing the rice with the sauce.
  • To make thick coconut milk:
  • With an ice pick or a skewer test the 3 eyes of the coconut to find the weakest one and pierce it to make a hole. Drain the liquid and reserve it for another use. Bake the coconut in a preheated 400°F. oven for 15 minutes, breaking it with a hammer, and with the point of a strong knife lever the flesh carefully out of the shell.
  • Chop into small pieces enough of the coconut meat to measure 1 cup, reserving the remainder for another use, and in a blender or food processor blend it with 1/2 cup boiling water for 30 seconds. In a cheesecloth-lined sieve set over a bowl let the mixture drain in 5 minutes and squeeze it in the cheesecloth to extract more coconut milk. Makes about 1/2 cup.

Tips:

  • To save time, use a food processor to chop the vegetables and herbs.
  • If you don't have any green bell pepper, you can use a red or yellow bell pepper instead.
  • If you like your chili shrimp spicy, add an extra pinch of cayenne pepper or a few dashes of hot sauce.
  • Serve the chili shrimp with rice, noodles, or a side of crusty bread.

Conclusion:

This curried chili shrimp is a quick and easy weeknight meal that's packed with flavor. The shrimp is cooked in a flavorful sauce made with curry powder, chili powder, cumin, and ginger. The dish is finished with a garnish of cilantro and green onions. This recipe is sure to please everyone at your table.
