Coconut Shrimp Curry for Safe06

Hiiii. I'm modifying this blog to include other recipes now, not just desserts. My motivation for this is from some of my silent visitors who are not really into dessert. These people want to try new and exciting recipes, and you know i'll do ANYTHING to make you guys happy. This first non-dessert recipe is for Safe06, who is a member of a forum i'm a part of.

Remember Beetle (of the banana bred?), yup, this is the same forum.

P.S: you can make this sauce as hot or as mild as you like. just reduce/increase the stated amounts of pepper, ginger, and garlic.

Ingredients

For the shrimp marinade:
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 kg shrimp, peeled and deveined

For the sauce:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3 tablespoons blended habanero pepper (atarodo)
2 tablespoons grated ginger
2 medium carrots, cut in rounds
1 tablespoon salt
4 garlic cloves, peeled and finely minced
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons curry powder
3 large tomatoes, blended with 4 tablespoons of water
1 can coconut milk
Hot cooked macaroni or rice for serving

 Directions 

Toss the shrimp with the salt, pepper, and cayenne in a bowl. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.Meanwhile, in a medium-sized pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot. Add the onion and cook for 2-3 minutes. Stir in the pepper, ginger, salt, garlic, coriander and curry powder.
 Continue cooking over medium heat, stirring often, for about 5-7 minutes. Add the tomatoes and carrots to the pot and cook, stirring for about 1 minute. Increase the heat to medium-high and simmer for 5-10 minutes, stirring often. Add the coconut milk, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil and add the shrimp and juices from the marinade. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until the shrimp are curled, lightly pink and cooked through, about 2-4 minutes. Serve over hot, cooked rice, or macaroni. I served mine on a bed of shredded cabbage, as well.
