How to make shrimp with coconut milk:

1

Clean the prawns by removing the heads and shells and rinse - reserve this waste to prepare, for example, a prawn broth . Heat a frying pan with a little olive oil over medium heat and, when hot, sauté the prawns for 2-3 minutes , until they change color.

Tip: You can also buy frozen peeled prawns, just let them thaw and they are ready to use.

 

2

Remove the prawns from the pan, so they don't overcook, and start preparing the sauce : add the onion to the same pan and add a little more oil.

 

3

Let the onion sauté until transparent and then add the tomato sauce and coconut milk . Mix, lower the heat and leave for 1-2 minutes.

Tip: If you don't like coconut milk, you can use cream instead.

4

Then put the curry , stir and also put the ginger , stirring again. Taste this curry sauce and, if you prefer a more intense flavor, add a little more of these spices.

 

5

To harmonize the flavors also add a few drops of lemon juice and a pinch of salt.

 

6

Return the prawns to the skillet and cook together for 2-3 minutes over medium-low heat, so as not to boil (this would cause the sauce to curdle).

 

7

Finish your curry shrimp with parsley or chopped parsley and it's ready to serve! Accompany with bread, toast or basmati rice and bon appetit!
