Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the onion, garlic, ginger, tomatoes, and bell pepper into small pieces. Rinse the shrimp under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pan or skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Bell Pepper

    Stir in the chopped tomatoes and bell pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes until the tomatoes break down and become saucy.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Curry Powder

    Sprinkle the curry powder over the mixture and stir well, allowing the spices to cook for 1-2 minutes to enhance their flavor.

  5. 5

    Pour in Coconut Milk

    Slowly pour in the coconut milk, stirring continuously to combine everything. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

  6. 6

    Add Shrimp

    Once the curry sauce is simmering, add the shrimp to the pan. Stir gently to coat the shrimp in the sauce and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through.

  7. 7

    Season and Garnish

    Season the curry with salt and black pepper to taste. Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving.
