SHRIMP IN YELLOW CURRY
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.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything important.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Whenever possible, use fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices.
- 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 Good Quality Red Curry Paste: The red curry paste is the key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a paste that is made with fresh, flavorful ingredients.
- Season to Taste: Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings in the dish to your own taste. Add more red curry paste if you like it spicy, or more coconut milk if you want it creamier.
Conclusion:
This fiery avocado red curry and shrimp is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of creamy avocado, spicy red curry, and succulent shrimp is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve it with rice or noodles for a complete meal.
