Ingredients in Curry Shrimp
While this recipe is easy to make it does have quite a few ingredients (more than I usually add to a recipe). In this case, it’s 100% worth the extra time, the flavor is amazing. I prep everything before I begin as this curry recipe comes together quickly.
Shrimp I most often use a large (or extra) shrimp (31/35per lb). Adjust the cook time slightly if your shrimp are larger or smaller. Spices A healthy dose of garlic and ginger add lots of flavor. Curry is a spice mixture and the flavors will vary slightly from brand to brand (and region to region). Use whichever you like best (or have on hand). Sauce This sauce is super easy to make. It includes coconut milk for creaminess. I prefer full fat but reduced fat versions do work in this recipe too. Veggies Bell peppers and tomatoes are added to this sauce.
How to Make Curry Shrimp

What to Serve with Curry Shrimp
Most curries, like butter chicken, are pretty complementary to a variety of sides. Veggies like broccoli, roasted carrots or steamed cauliflower (or riced cauliflower) work well. Mushrooms, or a variety of colorful peppers or even stir fried veggies are great with this shrimp curry! Add in a side of naan or pita for sopping up any sauce!
Leftovers
Leftover shrimp curry can be placed it in an airtight container in the fridge for a couple of days. When you are ready to reheat, simply use the microwave or the stovetop. Refresh the flavors with a little fresh cilantro! Perfect for lunch at work or school!
