Narial Jheenga Bombay Coconut Shrimps Recipes

NARIAL JHEENGA (BOMBAY COCONUT SHRIMPS)

Steps:

• Spread out the coconut flakes in a 10-inch microwave-proof pie plate or dish. Toast, uncovered, at 100 percent power in a 650- to 700-watt microwave carousel oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until lightly golden. Stir once during the cooking time. (The coconut will color unevenly.) Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
• Place the shrimps in a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well to coat the shrimps. Lift the shrimps by their tails and dip them one at a time in the toasted coconut. Coat them evenly but lightly. Arrange the shrimps in the microwave-proof pie plate or dish, petal fashion, with the tails toward the center of the pan.
• Cook, covered, at 100 percent power in the microwave oven for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the shrimps are just done. They should be pink and firm. Remove and serve.
