Thai Shrimp Curry with Yummy Shallot Crispies: An Incredible 5-Ingredient Recipe


  • Author: Clara Walker
  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 pound shrimp, peeled and deveined
– 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
– 2 tablespoons red curry paste
– 1 cup shallots, thinly sliced
– 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
– Lime wedges for serving (optional)


Instructions

Making Thai Shrimp Curry with Yummy Shallot Crispies is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Shallots: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced shallots and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and place on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

2. Cook the Shrimp: In a large skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp turns pink and is cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

3. Make the Curry: In the same skillet, add the red curry paste and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently. This will help release the flavors of the paste.

4. Add Coconut Milk: Pour in the coconut milk, stirring to combine with the curry paste. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

5. Combine Shrimp and Sauce: Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet and simmer in the curry sauce for about 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

6. Adjust Seasoning: Taste the curry and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

7. Serve: Remove the skillet from heat and garnish the curry with crispy shallots, fresh cilantro, and lime wedges.
