Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound spaghetti
Salt
5 tablespoons vegetable oil or peanut oil
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 inches ginger root, minced or grated
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 to 1/3 cup tamari dark soy sauce, eyeball it
1 (15-ounce) can cooked pumpkin
2 rounded tablespoonfuls mild or hot curry paste (recommended: Patak's) found on international foods aisle
3 tablespoons five-spice powder
12 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
12 diver scallops, trimmed and patted dry
4 scallions, cut into 2-inch pieces, then thinly sliced lengthwise into matchsticks

Steps:

  • Heat a large pot of water for noodles. When water boils, salt it and add pasta to cook to al dente or with a bite to it.
  • While pasta cooks, heat a large, deep skillet over medium heat with 2 tablespoons vegetable or peanut oil. Add garlic, ginger, red bell pepper, and pepper flakes to the pan and cook together a couple of minutes, then add peanut butter and melt it. Whisk soy into peanut butter, then stir in pumpkin and curry paste. The sauce will be very thick. Turn down the heat to low. Add a ladle or 2 of pasta cooking water to thin sauce a bit and simmer over low heat. Adjust salt, to taste.
  • Heat a small to medium skillet over high heat. Pour the five-spice powder onto a plate with some salt. Press both sides of the shrimp and scallops into the powder. Add 3 tablespoons of remaining oil to hot skillet. Place the shrimp in the pan and cook 1 minute, flip and sear the other side until just opaque. Remove shrimp to a plate and set aside. Add another 3 tablespoons of oil to the skillet and heat back up to smoking. Add the scallops and sear on both sides until opaque. Remove scallops and add to the plate of shrimp.
  • Drain pasta and return pasta to the pot. Add the curry-pumpkin sauce and toss thoroughly. Serve noodles on 4 plated and top with scallions and seafood.

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.

Steamed rice
Cilantro, lime zest and fried shallots

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and ginger. Saut? until soft, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and continue to saut? for 1 minute. Stir in chopped plum tomato and pumpkin puree; cook, stirring frequently until golden brown, about 10 minutes.

Simmer until shrimp are cooked and squash is warm. Serve with steamed rice. Top with cilantro, limes zest, and fried shallots. * Unseasoned, NOT spices already added, Pumpkin Pie puree. Equal measure of fresh cooked pumpkin can be used. when i make this (pictured) I use a whole, small pumpkin; like a Sugar Pumpkin, seeded, "lid" on, wrapped in foil and baked until soft. Let cool completely. Discard tough peel and keep the pumpkin. ** OR substitute cubed, steamed red or yellow sweet potato if you don't feel like wrestling an entire butternut squash for just 1 cup of cubed.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe pumpkin: This will give your curry a sweeter, more flavorful taste.
  • Choose a good quality shrimp: Wild-caught shrimp are typically more flavorful than farm-raised shrimp.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it or it will become tough.
  • Use a variety of spices: Curry powder, garam masala, cumin, coriander, and turmeric are all common spices used in pumpkin shrimp curry. Feel free to experiment with different spices to create your own unique flavor.
  • Add some vegetables: Vegetables such as onions, peppers, and carrots can add extra flavor and texture to your curry.
  • Serve with rice or naan: Pumpkin shrimp curry is traditionally served with rice or naan. However, you can also serve it with other grains, such as quinoa or couscous.
