 Shrimp Rice with Curry and Creamy Sauce - Recipe

Ingredients

For the shrimp curry:

500g shrimp meat

200ml heavy cream (1 packet)

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, chopped

2 tablespoons curry powder

2 tablespoons tomato paste

Olive oil, salt and pepper to taste Fresh chopped cilantro to finish

For the rice:

200g rice (basmati or steamed rice works very well) Water and salt for cooking

Preparation Method 1. Cook the rice. Place the rice in boiling water seasoned with salt. Cook according to the package instructions until fluffy. Drain and set aside. 2. Sauté the shrimp. Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet or saucepan. Sauté the shrimp for 3 to 4 minutes until they change color. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and reserve the juices they released. Make the curry sauce: In the same pan, add a little more olive oil and sauté the onion and garlic until golden brown. Add the tomato paste and curry powder. Stir well over low heat for 1 minute to release the aromas of the spices. Slowly pour in the cream, stirring constantly until you obtain a smooth sauce. Let it cook over low heat for 2 minutes until it thickens slightly.

Toss and serve: Add the reserved shrimp to the curry and cream sauce. Add the cooked rice directly to the pan. Stir everything very well for 1 to 2 minutes so the rice absorbs the sauce. Adjust the seasonings (salt and curry) to your liking. Turn off the heat, sprinkle with chopped cilantro and serve immediately.
