Introducing: Spicy Coconut Shrimp Curry

I’m excited to share one of my favorite exotic dishes with you today — a spicy coconut shrimp curry that never fails to impress. The combination of creamy coconut milk, bold spices, and succulent shrimp creates a harmony of flavors that will transport you straight to the tropics. It’s perfect for a special dinner or a cozy night in.

Ingredients:

  • 500g shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 400ml coconut milk
  • 50g yellow curry paste
  • 30ml fish sauce
  • 15g brown sugar
  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish

Kitchen Tools:

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • saucepan
  • wooden spoon

Start by heating the saucepan over medium heat and adding the yellow curry paste. Let it cook for a minute until fragrant, then pour in the coconut milk and stir until well combined. Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes to let the flavors meld together.

Once the curry base is ready, add the shrimp to the saucepan along with the fish sauce, brown sugar, and lime juice. Stir gently to coat the shrimp in the flavorful sauce. Let the curry simmer gently until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

Serve the spicy coconut shrimp curry hot, garnished with fresh cilantro for a burst of herbal freshness. You can enjoy it on its own or with steamed rice or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.

This recipe serves 4 and each serving weighs approximately 200g. One serving of this spicy coconut shrimp curry is around 350 calories.

One unique tip for this dish is to toast the yellow curry paste in a dry saucepan for a minute before adding the coconut milk. This extra step helps to deepen the flavors and enhance the overall taste of the curry.

I highly recommend giving this spicy coconut shrimp curry a try — it’s a delightful blend of spicy, creamy, and savory flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. Feel free to customize it with your favorite vegetables or additional spices to make it your own. Enjoy!
