Ingredients

How to make it

  • Cut up chilies, shallots and garlic and pop in the blender. Process with minimal water till you get a not too smooth paste.
  • Heat 1/2 cup OR 6tbs oil in a wok or deep pan till very hot then fry shrimp only till they change colour. Remove from pan, leaving oil behind and set aside.
  • Add another tbs oil to pan and when hot, add chili paste and fry till fragrant and glistening. Return shrimp to pan and stir for about 3 minutes.
  • Season and add lime juice (to taste) and water. Stir well. Turn off heat and serve with white or coconut rice and sliced cucumbers if you like.

    spice + shrimp = AWESOME.

    I am drooling. This would be really good w/ some asian slaw or a glass noodle salad. Mmm... yum.
