Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 24

750 g (1½lbs) shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp Garam Masala
1 tbsp butter
1 onion (finely diced)
4 garlic cloves (minced)
2 tsp minced ginger
10 curry leaves ((optional))
1½ tbsp Garam Masala
½ tsp ground cardamom
½ tsp chilli powder
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp sugar ((optional))
1 cup stock
1½ cups heavy / whipping cream
1-2 tsp lemon juice (to taste)
salt and pepper (to taste )
½ cup warm water
10 g (2tsp) instant yeast
1 tsp sugar
2½-3 cups flour
1 tsp salt
½ cup plain yogurt
1 tbsp vegetable oil

Steps:

  • For the Naan bread: Whisk the yeast and sugar into the water and allow to stand for a few minutes until foamy.
  • Add 2½ cups flour and salt into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment.
  • Pour in the yeast mixture, yogurt and oil. Knead on low speed until the dough comes together. If the dough is very sticky add more flour.
  • Allow to knead until the dough is soft and smooth. Cover with a damp tea towel and allow to rise for 1 hour.
  • Once risen, break off small handfuls of the dough and roll out on a floured surface.
  • Heat a large skillet then add the dough. Cover with a lid and allow to cook for 1-2 minutes until the dough is blistered. Carefully flip over and allow to cook for another 1-2 minutes on the other side.
  • Remove from the pan and brush with melted butter.
  • For the curry: Season the shrimp with salt and garam masala and toss well. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large, deep frying pan and brown the shrimp on both sides. Remove and set aside.
  • To make the sauce, melt the butter in the pan then add the onions. Cook until soft and translucent. Add the garlic, ginger and spices and cook for another 30 seconds.
  • Add the stock, sugar, cream and lemon juice. Bring the sauce to a simmer then allow to cook for 7-10 minutes or until the sauce has reduced slightly. I prefer the sauce to be a little looser in consistency but you can thicken the sauce with cornstarch/corn flour if you prefer a thicker sauce.
  • Once the sauce is the consistency you like, add the shrimp back in to the sauce and allow to cook for 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.
  • Serve the curry with rice and naan bread.

Number Of Ingredients 19

5 cloves garlic
One 3-inch long piece fresh ginger, peeled
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 heaping teaspoon whole cloves
10 cardamom pods
8 whole allspice
1 cinnamon stick, broken in half
1 bay leaf
1 medium yellow onion, sliced
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/2 jalapeno, or more to taste
1/2 cup whole, peeled, canned tomatoes (with puree), roughly chopped
