Omg, this recipe was beyond amazing. I totally loved it and I am not a big seafood person. Honestly my husband and I were just left wanting more. Enjoy! 🙂
Ingredients:
A pinch of mustard seeds
1 onion – chopped
1 green chili – diced
1 packet of shrimp – 24oz
2 tbs vinegar
2 tbs lemon juice
½ tbs of desiccated coconut
Salt as per taste
Oil to fry
To marinate the Shrimp:
¼ tsp cumin powder
¼ tsp coriander powder
¼ tsp curry powder
¼ tsp red chili powder
A dash of black pepper (close 1/8 tsp)
½ tsp ginger paste
½ tsp garlic paste
Method:
Mix the shrimp with the above ingredients and set aside for half an hour.
In a non-stick pan/wok add oil and mustard seeds.
Let the mustard seeds sputter.
Add the onions and fry till slightly browned.
Add the marinated shrimp and green chilies and mix well for 2 minutes.
Add ½ cup of water and salt and bring to a boil.
Add the vinegar and lemon juice and cook for another 2 minutes.
Add the desiccated coconut and cook till most of the water disappears.
Continue stirring occasionally as we are drying up the water almost completely.
Serve hot with brown rice or roti. I ate mine with Near East wild rice.
