Savor the Tropics: Coconut Curry Shrimp Stir-Fry Recipe

Today’s Recipe: Coconut Curry Shrimp Stir-Fry

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share my latest creation: a delicious Coconut Curry Shrimp Stir-Fry. This dish is perfect for a quick and flavorful dinner on a busy weeknight. The combination of creamy coconut milk, zesty curry spices, and succulent shrimp will transport your taste buds to the tropics. Let’s get cooking!

Ingredients:

• 400g shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 can (400ml) coconut milk
• 2 tbsp curry powder
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
• Assorted vegetables (bell peppers, snap peas, carrots), sliced
• 1 lime, juiced
• Fresh cilantro, chopped
• Cooked rice for serving

Kitchen Tools:

• wok
• wooden spoon
• knife
• cutting board
• grater

To start, heat some oil in a wok over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring until fragrant. Next, toss in the sliced vegetables and cook until slightly tender. Push the vegetables to the side of the wok and add the shrimp. Cook until they turn pink and opaque.

Once the shrimp is cooked, pour in the coconut milk and sprinkle in the curry powder. Stir everything together and let the curry simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly. Squeeze in the lime juice for a pop of freshness before sprinkling in the chopped cilantro.

Serve the Coconut Curry Shrimp Stir-Fry over a bed of steamed rice, garnished with extra cilantro if desired. The creamy coconut curry sauce pairs perfectly with the tender shrimp and crisp veggies, creating a mouthwatering blend of flavors and textures.

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1000g, with 4 servings at around 250g each. Each serving is an estimated 300 calories.

One unique tip for this dish is to marinate the shrimp in a mixture of curry powder, garlic, and ginger for 30 minutes before cooking. This will infuse the shrimp with even more flavor, taking this stir-fry to the next level.

I hope you give this Coconut Curry Shrimp Stir-Fry a try and enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to customize it with your favorite vegetables or add some heat with a sprinkle of chili flakes. Happy cooking!
