classic coconut curry with shrimp

This irresistible Coconut Curry is hands down my favorite. It transports me to a shack in Goa’s moonlit beaches. Cooking doesn’t get any easier than this. Have with a chilled beer and you’re in heaven!

Prep time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 12 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Serves: 4

Ingredients

1 jar Masala Mama Coconut Curry Simmer Sauce
1 lb. peeled and deveined shrimp, (thawed if using frozen)
¾ cup coconut milk (more for a creamier curry)
¼ - ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for additional heat)
Cilantro, for garnish
Salt to taste

Direction

  1. In a sauce pan combine Masala Mama’s Coconut Curry sauce* with coconut milk, shrimp and red pepper flakes. Simmer until the shrimp is completely cooked, about 10 minutes.

  2. Adjust salt to taste, garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with crusty bread, or rice. Here’s a recipe for Mama’s Perfect Basmati Rice. 

*Use 2 tablespoons of stock or water to rinse out any remaining sauce in the jar and add.

TIP: This also works well with fish, squid, or mussels.
