Coconut Curry Shrimp is a scrumptious dinner!
This recipe is a rendition of a recipe that my daughter’s mother-in-law makes. Unfortunately there isn’t an Asian market anywhere near where I live so I have to improvise. It will be acceptable to improvise and still be tasty but if you can get some
the ingredients at the Asian market I’m sure it will be worth a trip.
1 1/2 pounds of the best and largest fresh shrimp you can find (try a local seafood specialty store instead of the grocery store. You’ll pay more but it’s well worth it!)
Lemongrass (if you can’t find fresh try getting the tube in the produce section)
2 fresh chili peppers (you can use dried if you can’t find fresh)
Fish sauce (optional)
Oyster sauce (optional)
Red curry paste (You can get a recipe here) or watch Endang in the video below explain how she makes it
FRESH IS ALWAYS BEST! So try to get everything you can at your Asian market!
Here is the video I shot of Endang making this wonderfully tasty dish:
