TROPICAL RED CURRY SHRIMP WITH COCONUT RICE

Steps:

• shell the prawns and marinate in the fridge with coconut milk.
• Prepare rice just like you usually do, but substitute half the water with coconut milk.
• Heat up curry sauce ingredients except cilantro over low heat, stirring until all ingredients are consistent.
• Add washed cilantro, stems and all into the sauce for flavor.
• remove cilantro before serving.
• Slice all the fruit into bit sized pieces.
• Get a stainless steel saute pan very hot and add macadamia nut oil (olive or peanut oil would probably work fine too).
• Let oil get smoking hot.
• Add fruit and swirl it around occasionally to prevent from sticking.
• Allow fruit to caramelize (singe and turn brown on the edges, about 5 minutes) bringing out the sugars.
• Push fruit to the edge of the saute pan.
• Add shrimp and marinade in the center.
• Cook one side of shrimp to desired doneness (depends on the size of the shrimp).
• Mix up the fruit and shrimp in the pan, partially deglazing the pan using a wood spoon or spatula.
• Cook to desired doneness.
• Serve in wide bowls with a scoop of rice, followed by shrimp and fruit stir-fry, and then sauce over the top.
• Enjoy your meal with a Belikin beer and plan your next vacation to Belize that includes a stop at the Maya Beach Hotel.
