Recipe: Shrimp Curry

I loved this curry as soon as I made it. Although I got this recipe from a friend of mine and also from the website (http://www.jamaicans.com/cooking/fish/curryshrimp.shtml), I had customized it to my taste.

So here goes:

Ingridients:

Onion: 1 (large) or 2 med
Tomato: 1 (medium)
Ginger Garlic Paste: 1 tbsp

Fish masala, or kitchen king+pani puri masala

RECIPE

1. Thaw shrimp (1lb) in hot water for 10mins.
2. Add pani puri masala and kitchen king masala (1 tbsp each) along with lemon/lime juice and mix thoroughly. Let it stand for 15-30 mins. Use fish curry masala if available.
3. Meanwhile, finely chop one onion, one tomato and green peppers (if you need a spicy curry).
4. Heat some olive oil in a pan.
5. Add the shrimp mix and fry for 8 mins, or till a light golden brown color is attained.
6. Transfer the fried shrimp into a bowl and let it stand.
