Goan Shrimp Curry

Here is another Goan recipe which is learnt from my friend. Since we add coconut milk or grated coconut, this will have a mild spiciness only. So it suits for people who could not eat spicy food.



Ingredients I (cleaning)

  • Prawns - 1/2 kg 
  • Salt - 1 tsp
  • Water

Ingredients II (For marination)

  • Prawns - 1/2 kg
  • Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
  • Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
  • Chilli powder - 1/2 tsp
  • Salt - 2 pinch

Ingredients III (To grind)

  • Prawns - 6 to 8 (with or without marination)
  • Grated Coconut - 1/2 cup
  • Red chillies(Dry) - 2 to 3
  • Cumin seeds - 1/4 tsp
  • Water - 1/4 cup

Ingredients IV

  • Oil - 3 tsp
  • Cumin seeds - 1/4 tsp
  • Onion - 1 (big - finely chopped)
  • Tomato - 1 (big - finely chopped)
  • Coriander powder - 1/2 tsp
  • Salt - as per taste
  • Curry leaves - few
  • Coriander leaves - for garnishing


Method

  • Wash and remove the black thread of the prawns.
  • Clean with salt. 
  • Marinate the prawns with the Ingredients II (for marination) for 20 to 30 min.
  • Grind the Ingredients III (To grind) and make a paste and keep aside.
  • In a vessel, add oil and when hot, add the cumin seeds.
  • Add the onions and curry leaves.
  • When onions become soft, add the tomato, coriander powder and salt.
  • Now add in the marinated prawns.
  • No need to add water, as the shrimp/prawn itself leaves out water. 
  • When the shrimps starts curling, add in the grinded paste. 
  • At this stage, if you feel, the curry is thick, can add little water.
  • Allow to cook for 10 min.
  • When the prawns are cooked, garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot with steamed rice or chappathi or roti. 


Note:

  • Instead of grated coconut, coconut milk can be added.
  • Instead of Red chillies, green chillies can be added.

Thanks for stopping by. For someone who is "learning to cook" this looks quite amazing. I've tried Goan dishes at restaurants, never made them. This looks mouthwatering.
