Shrimp with Green & Red Peppers


Ingredients:

Shrimp (Cleaned and De-veined) – 1 lb
Red Bell Pepper (Sliced lengthwise) – 1
Green Bell Pepper (Sliced lengthwise) – 1
Shallots (Thinly Sliced) – 12
Curry Leaves – 5-6
Chilli Powder – 1 Tsp
Turmeric Powder – ½ Tsp
Pepper Powder – 1 Tsp
Jeera Powder – ½ Tsp
Ginger/Garlic Paste – 1 Tsp
Coriander (Chopped) – A Handful

In a pan, add oil. When the oil is hot, add curry leaves and the sliced shallots. Sauté until the onions turn glassy and transparent. Add ginger garlic paste, sauté for about 5 minutes and add all the powders. Immediately add the shrimp and salt to taste. Along with the shrimp add the peppers. The shrimp usually cooks fast and you want the peppers nice and crisp and not overcooked. Once the shrimp and the veggies are cooked thru, garnish with a handful of chopped coriander. Serve hot with rice.
