Cooking Instructions

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.

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.

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.

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.

Pour in Coconut Milk

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

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.

Season and Garnish

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