    Recipe Introduction


    The spiciness can be adjusted to the taste of the cook.
    Indian - Shrimp Curry

    1 pound (450 g) jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
    1 Tbs (15 ml) cider vinegar
    1 tsp (5 ml) salt
    4 Tbs (60 ml) vegetable oil
    1 medium onion, finely chopped
    1 Tbs (15 ml) finely chopped ginger
    2-3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    1 tsp (5 ml) turmeric
    1/2 tsp (2 ml) ground cumin
    Cayenne pepper to taste (optional)
    Freshly ground black pepper to taste
    1 cup (250 ml) unsweetened coconut milk
    Chopped cilantro (coriander leaves) for garnish

    Combine the shrimp, vinegar, and salt in a bowl and marinate at
    room temperature for about 20 minutes. Heat the oil in a large
    heavy skillet over high heat until it is very hot. Saute the onion,
    ginger, and garlic until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the
    turmeric, cumin, cayenne, and pepper and cook, stirring constantly,
    for 1 minute. Add the shrimp along with the marinade and cook,
    stirring frequently, until the shrimp are pink, about 1 minute. Add
    the coconut milk and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce
    the heat and simmer covered for until the shrimp are firm, about
    3 minutes. Serve garnished with chopped cilantro.
    Serves 4 to 6.
