Curried Coconut Shrimp Balls On Bamboo Spoons Recipes

COCONUT SHRIMP CURRY

Steps:

• In a small bowl toss the shrimp with the marinade ingredients. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
• While the shrimp is marinating, heat the oil in a medium size skillet. To it add the onion, and cook for 2 or 3 minutes until the onion softens and becomes translucent. Stir in the garlic, ginger, pepper, salt, coriander, turmeric and curry powder. Cook for another minute.
• Add the diced tomatoes with juices and all, the coconut milk, stir and bring to a boil. Cook for about 5 minutes stirring occasionally. Add the shrimp with the accumulated juices from the marinade and cook for another 2 minutes or until the shrimp is pink and cooked through.
• Serve over hot rice and garnish with cilantro or parsley.

BAMBOO PIPE STEAMED COCONUT SHRIMP

Steps:

• Soak two 8-inch-long, 4 1/2-inch-wide bamboo steamer pipes in water for 15 to 20 minutes before using to prevent them from burning over an open fire. (See Cook's Note.) If the walls of the bamboo steamer pipes are at least 1 inch thick or if you are using a gas grill, this step is optional.
• Place the shrimp in a medium bowl and sprinkle with the salt. Mix in the coconut milk, rice wine vinegar, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, green onion, cilantro, lemongrass and red chile flakes.
• Prepare an open fire with grill grates or prepare a gas grill for 350 degrees F.
• Fill the bamboo pipes with the shrimp mixture. Ensure the liquid fills the bamboo pipes at least three-quarters of the way up. Place the bamboo pipes directly on the grill grates over the open fire or directly on the grates of a gas grill at 350 degrees F. Remove the bamboo pipes when the shrimp are cooked through, after about 30 minutes. Allow to rest for 5 minutes. Drain the liquid from the bamboo pipes and reserve for the guests to use for dipping or smothering. Serve the shrimp over your favorite side or steamed white rice.

SHRIMP AND BAMBOO SHOOT CURRY

Steps:

• Marinate the shrimp in the lemon juice and salt for 1 hour.
• Heat the oil in a pan (a dekshi in Calcutta), add the onion, and stir fry it over moderate heat until it turns light brown. Add the garlic and ginger and stir fry another minute. Add the tomato and mix well.
• Add the cumin, coriander, turmeric and chili flakes and stir for a minute or two to integrate all the seasonings. Add the shrimp and marinade, bamboo shoots, and the coconut milk and water. Simmer the mixture over low heat for 15-20 minutes. Adjust the salt if necessary.
• Remove the pan from the heat, cover, and let stand for 10 minutes, which allows the coconut milk to be absorbed by the shrimp and bamboo shoots. Garnish with the fresh coriander.
• Serve warm with white rice and a variety of table chutneys and pickles.
