Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup coconut sweetened or unsweetened is fine, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 onion finely chopped, medium
  • 4 garlic finely chopped, medium cloves
  • 2 teaspoons ginger finely chopped, fresh
  • 1 teaspoon red curry paste add more if you like it really spicy
  • 2 teaspoons cumin ground
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • ½ teaspoon Turmeric
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
  • 1 beef bouillon cube or 1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules
  • 1-14 ounce crushed tomatoes canned
  • 20 ounces coconut milk about 1 ½ cans, light
  • 4 cups spinach roughly chopped, fresh
  • 1 pound Shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 1 ½ cups pea tiny frozen

Instructions

  1. Dry toast the coconut by heating a medium non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the shredded coconut and cook until golden brown, stirring frequently. This will take about 10 minutes depending on your heat. Be sure to watch coconut carefully as it can easily burn. Transfer coconut to a bowl and set aside to cool.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or dutch oven. Add the onions and sauté for 8-10 minutes or until softened and translucent. Add the garlic and next eight ingredients and cook another 2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add the crushed tomatoes, bouillon cube, toasted coconut and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook, uncovered for 30 minutes. Next, puree mixture with a stick blender or a regular blender till smooth. If using a regular blender, allow mixture to cool down a bit before blending.
  4. Add the shrimp and cook for another 2-3 minutes over medium-high heat, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque and begin to curl. Remove from heat. Add spinach and peas and cover for 2-3 minutes. Serve in bowls with a scoop of jasmine rice, a sprinkle of cilantro and a splash of fresh lime. You could also garnish with fresh basil, chives or green onions.
