Shrimp and Green Beans Curry Recipe

Shrimp and Green Beans Curry Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1/2 lb. shrimps
• 2 shallots (sliced)
• 4 tablespoons red curry paste
• 1 cup of water
• 1 small can of coconut milk (5.6 oz size)
• Salt to taste / fish sauce to taste
• 4 kaffir lime leaves (cut into tiny and thin strips)
• 8-10 green beans (cut into 3-inch strips)
• 3 bird’s eyes chilies (pounded)

Method:

Heat up your wok with some cooking oil. Stir-fry the sliced shallots until fragant; add in the red curry paste, shrimps and quickly stir before adding the coconut milk and water. Bring to boil and add in the green beans, kaffir lime leaves, bird’s eye chilies, and salt (or fish sauce) to taste. Cook for another 1 minute. Serve hot with steamed white rice.

Notes:

1. I like my shrimps with the shells on (but without the heads) when I cook curry. If you prefer your shrimps shelled and deveined, this recipe will work just fine.
