Over the years I’ve shared a number of Curry Shrimp recipes with you and while the Masala Shrimp seems to be on everyone’s list of fav recipes, I get just as many emails about the Curry Crab with Lobster I most recently published. As mentioned in the video of this recipe, we are changing things…
The Ultimate Curry Shrimp is one of the most visited (used) recipes on the website ever since it was uploaded, and while it’s still very much relevant, I thought I’d share a version with some slight differences. Especially since I’m doing the ‘comfort food’ series on YouTube. You’ll Need… 1 1/2 tablespoon olive oil1 teaspoon…
I had a recent request via Instagram asking for tips on cooking curry shrimp. According to the person who contacted me, they encounter over-cooked and bland shrimp every time they give it a go in the kitchen. It got to the point where they’ve now given up on ever cooking curry shrimp again. I can assure you that if you also encounter this problem, you’re not alone. Experience also tells me that even many of the West Indian restaurants also get it wrong the majority of time.
This is definitely one of those dishes that takes me back to my childhood. Seafood was our mortal enemy (with the exception of fried King Fish) of ours when we were kids, however this fried dried curry shrimp was something we always requested from mom. Normally served with hot-out-the oven coconut bake. Unlike traditional curry shrimp where you’d normally have a gravy or sauce and sometimes you’d find pieces of potato in the mix, this curry shrimp is all about that rich and intense curry flavor.
