Coconut Shrimp

Ingredients:

Shrimp -500g/1lb

Ginger Garlic paste -1tsp

Salt -1/2 tsp or to taste

Turmeric -1/4 tsp

Red Chilli Powder -1/2 tsp

Dry Ground Coconut-1Tbsp

Corn Starch or All Purpose Flour – 1 Tbsp

Dhania (Coriander Powder) – 1/2 tsp

Vinegar – 1 Tbsp

Garlic – 3 cloves(peeled & chopped)

Green Chilies – 2 (chopped fine)

Oil – 2 Tbsp(I use Vegetable oil)

Coriander to garnish.

Instructions:

1.Mix shrimp, ginger garlic paste, salt, turmeric, red chili powder, coconut, corn starch, vinegar, dhania, and green chilies and let it marinate for some time( the longer the better).

2. Heat oil in a frying pan, when hot add chopped garlic, fry till garlic starts to brown.

3. Add the marinated shrimp, spread it evenly across the pan. Fry for about 10 min or until the shrimp starts browning.

4. Turn over the shrimp and repeat the process.

5. Once shrimp is done, garnish with chopped coriander.

6. Enjoy!

Notes:

Shrimp has a lot of water in it, I use a paper towel to pat it dry before I marinate it. If miss this step, I drain the water from the frying pan.

You can add cumin,mustard seeds with the garlic if you like them.

I sometimes add an onion to step 2. I like it either ways.
