Tips:

  • Choose the right shrimp: For the best results, use fresh or frozen shrimp that have been peeled and deveined. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Marinate the shrimp: Marinating the shrimp in the yogurt and spice mixture helps to tenderize and flavor them. Be sure to marinate the shrimp for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cook quickly, so it's important not to overcook them. Cook the shrimp in a single layer in a hot skillet until they are pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Make a flavorful curry sauce: The curry sauce is what makes this dish so delicious. Be sure to use a good quality curry powder and coconut milk. You can also add other vegetables to the sauce, such as onions, peppers, or tomatoes.
  • Serve the curry with rice or naan: This curry is traditionally served with rice or naan. You can also serve it with other sides, such as roasted vegetables or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

This home-style shrimp curry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The shrimp are marinated in a flavorful yogurt and spice mixture, then cooked in a creamy curry sauce. Serve the curry with rice or naan, and enjoy!
