How to Make Easy Coconut Curried Shrimp

  1. Pour 1 (13.5 ounce) can of full-fat coconut milk into a large, wide frying pan and set over medium heat.
  2. Stir in 2 tablespoons of red curry paste (adjust to your spice preference).
  3. Finely chop 1 medium onion and stir into the sauce.
  4. Slice 2 medium tomatoes in half.
  5. Squeeze out and discard the seeds from the tomatoes.
  6. Coarsely chop the tomatoes and stir into the gently boiling sauce.
  7. Stir often, uncovered, until the sauce thickens slightly (7-10 minutes). Meanwhile, defrost 1 pound of shrimp according to package directions.
  8. Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels.
  9. Once the sauce is almost as thick as you like, stir in the shrimp and 1/2 cup of chopped celery.
  10. Stir until the shrimp are bright pink (3-5 minutes). Remove from heat.
  11. Stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions, 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh coriander (cilantro), and the juice of 1 lime.
  12. Taste and stir in salt or more lime juice to your liking.
  13. Serve immediately over hot jasmine rice.
