COCONUT CURRY SOUP WITH SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium heat.
• Add red bell pepper and saute for about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and saute for about 3 minutes.
• Add garlic and ginger and saute just until fragrant. Stir in the red curry paste.
• Stir in chicken stock, soy sauce, fish sauce, coconut milk, brown sugar and black pepper. Bring to a simmer.
• Add the shrimp and cook just until the shrimp turns pink. This should take about 3 - 4 minutes. Do not overcook the shrimp or it will be rubbery!
• Remove from the heat and stir in lime juice, green onions and basil. Serve immediately.

SHRIMP AND VEGETABLE YELLOW CURRY

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring the coconut milk and curry paste to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking constantly until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth, carrot, red bell pepper, onion, baby corn, basil, chile, lime leaves and fish sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cover the pan and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
• Pour the oil into a large wide saucepan. Attach a deep-fry thermometer to the side of the saucepan and heat the oil to 350 degrees F. Add half of the noodles and fry until crisp, about 20 seconds. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
• Remove the lid from the curry and add the shrimp, snap peas and the remaining noodles. Simmer, uncovered, until the shrimp is cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the lime leaves and basil sprigs and discard.
• Ladle the curry into bowls. Garnish with the fried noodles, cilantro and peanuts.

LYLA'S CURRY SHRIMP COCONUT SOUP

Steps:

• Cover the bottom of a non-stick Dutch oven with a teaspoon regular Olive Oil and I use a pastry brush to distribute it over the bottom,
• once heated on Medium High, add chopped onions and celery stocks into the pan. Allow onions and celery to caramelized about 2 minutes and then stir in garlic.
• Add curry and stir to bloom the flavor (1 min.), then.
• immediately add in your thawed shrimp and drained sweet potatoes. Stir quickly around the Dutch oven for another 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add low sodium chicken broth and lite coconut milk, and then bring contents to a boil for approximately 10 minutes to barely soften sweet potatoes.
• Add the chopped peppers and broccoli slaw into the soup.
• Off the burner and add lime zest, ½ tsp dried cilantro (or approximately ¼ cup fresh chopped cilantro), chopped celery leaves, sea salt and the juice of the lime.
• Stir and let flavors blend for about 2 minutes before serving over rice or spinach leaves.
• You can top with Mango Salsa-Pico de Gallo (like Newman's Own Mango Salsa) and cracked pepper to enhance the taste.
• Add more veggies like broccoli slaw or onions and celery to make it a fuller soup.
• These veggies make a filling, but yummy low calorie soup whose flavors of curry, lime, coconut milk and shrimp meld nicely together.

COCONUT CURRY SHRIMP

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large skillet (I used nonstick) over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook, turning them over halfway through, until fully cooked, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• Add the garlic and onions to the skillet and stir to cook for 2 minutes. Sprinkle the curry powder over the onions and continue cooking, stirring, for another couple of minutes. Reduce the heat to medium low and pour in the coconut milk, stirring to combine. Add the honey, salt and lime juice, and allow the sauce to heat up until bubbling gently. Add the shrimp to the sauce, tossing to coat, and allow it to simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste the sauce and add more salt, lime juice or honey, depending on your taste. Stir in the basil. (Add hot sauce if you want a little kick.)
• Serve the shrimp and sauce over a bed of cooked basmati rice, garnishing with more basil. Delicious!
