Ingredients

* 4 cloves garlic, peeled

* 1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger root

* 1 fresh jalapeño pepper, seeded

* 1/2 teaspoon salt

* 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

* 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

* 1 medium onion, diced

* 1 pound medium shrimp - peeled and deveined

* 2 tomatoes, seeded and diced

* 1 cup coconut milk (I use 'lite' coconut milk!)

* 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves

Directions

1. Combine the garlic, ginger, jalapeño, salt and turmeric in the container of a food processor or blender. Process to a smooth paste. Set aside.

2. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, and cook until translucent, stirring frequently. Mix in the spice paste, and cook for a few minutes to release the oils.

3. Add shrimp, and cook for a few minutes until pink, then add the tomatoes and coconut milk. Cover, and simmer for about 5 minutes, then remove the lid and simmer an additional 5 minutes to thicken the sauce. Stir in the fresh basil during the last minute of cooking.
