THAI COCONUT RED CURRY WITH SHRIMP



Thai Coconut Red Curry with Shrimp image

Some years ago my friend's son took us to dinner in Wrigglyville (Chicago) to a place called Joy Noodles. I had the best red curry there I have ever had. It took awhile but I duplicated the recipe. I got a start by finding maybe 12 recipes online and finding the common ingredients. This is most excellent, and my own recipe.

MY FAVORITE THAI RED SHRIMP CURRY



My Favorite Thai Red Shrimp Curry image

This is my personal favorite curry. I adore red curry with shrimp. I have changed this dish to suit my taste buds. Another quick and easy to make dish, that never disappoints. I use collasal shrimps in this dish but you could use jumbo shrimps. It's a great meal served with rice but is just as nice served with cellaphane noodles.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon peanut oil
4 shallots, finely chopped
2 inches galangal, peeled and thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 1/2 cups coconut milk, canned
1/4 cup coconut cream, canned
2 stalks lemongrass, snapped in half
3 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons chili sauce, hot
1 tablespoon lime juice, fresh
1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional)
1 cup bamboo shoot, canned, thinly sliced, drained, rinsed
24 shrimp, collasal, uncooked, shelled
1/8 cup garlic chives (garnish)
4 cups rice, jasmine, steamed

Steps:

  • In a wok or large skillet, heat the oil and fry the shallots, galangal and garlic for 2 minutes.
  • Add the coconut milk and cream, lemongrass, fish sauce, chili sauce, lime juice, sugar and bamboo shoots. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 3 minutes.
  • Next add the shrimp and simmer for 4 - 5 minutes.
  • Once the shrimp have turned pink remove the curry from the stove top and pour over the rice, garnish with the chives and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help the cooking process go smoothly and prevent any scrambling.
  • Choose the Right Shrimp: Use large, fresh shrimp for the best results. Avoid frozen shrimp, as they can be tough and rubbery.
  • Don't Overcook the Shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a Good Quality Curry Paste: The curry paste is the key to a great Thai curry. Look for a paste that is made with fresh, high-quality ingredients.
  • Add Vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, texture, and nutrition to the curry. Feel free to add your favorite vegetables, such as bell peppers, carrots, or broccoli.
  • Serve with Rice: Thai curry is traditionally served with rice. Jasmine rice is a good choice, as it has a light, fluffy texture that pairs well with the curry.

Conclusion:

This easy shrimp red Thai curry recipe is a delicious and satisfying meal that can be made in under 30 minutes. The curry is creamy, flavorful, and slightly spicy, and the shrimp is perfectly cooked. Serve it with rice and your favorite vegetables for a complete meal.
