CURRIED SHRIMP AND RICE SALAD
Steps:
- Cook the Rice A Roni and white rice in a covered saute pan according to Rice A Roni box directions - Toward the end of sautéing the rice mixture, add curry powder to pan and let it sauté for a minute before adding the water. Don't forget to add Rice A Roni seasoning packet. Be careful not to cook the rice too long. Let it sit undisturbed in the pan uncovered until it is cooled. Try not to stir the rice too much after it's cooked so it doesn't get broken or too mushy. Chop parsley (lots!) and peppers. Mix mayo, juice and sugar to make dressing. In large bowl, gently toss the curry rice, chopped vegetables, raisins, almonds, and shrimp with the dressing. I only use dressing to lightly moisten and bind the ingredients. The mixed salad should still be "crumbly" not stuck together with dressing Tip: If your raisins aren't tender, they usually benefit by soaking them while you are cooking the rice in a little orange juice.

CURRIED SHRIMP SALAD
Steps:
- In a small skillet, heat the oil, add the curry, and cook the mixture for about 30 seconds to eliminate the raw taste of the curry. Then, in a medium bowl, mix curry and oil with ginger and yogurt. Add the shrimp, raisins, cashews, salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the scallions. Toss the ingredients to combine them thoroughly. Before serving, bring the salad to room temperature, and garnish with the remaining scallions.
Tips:
- Buy the best shrimp you can find: Fresh, wild-caught shrimp is ideal, but frozen shrimp can also be used if thawed properly. Avoid pre-cooked shrimp, as they will be tough and rubbery.
- Cook the shrimp properly: Overcooked shrimp is tough and chewy, so cook it just until it turns pink and opaque. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Use a good-quality mayonnaise: The mayonnaise is one of the main ingredients in this salad, so don't skimp on quality. Look for a mayonnaise that is made with real eggs and oil, and avoid mayonnaise that contains a lot of sugar or other additives.
- Add some crunch: Celery, onion, and bell pepper are all classic additions to curried shrimp salad. They add flavor, texture, and color.
- Experiment with different curry powders: There are many different types of curry powder available, so feel free to experiment until you find one that you like. Madras curry powder is a good all-purpose choice, but you could also try a milder curry powder like korma or a spicier curry powder like vindaloo.
Conclusion:
Curried shrimp salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as an appetizer, main course, or side dish. It's perfect for a summer picnic or potluck, and it's also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that everyone will enjoy.
