THAI CURRIED SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS
I didn't have any green or red curry paste as a base, so I had to improvise and came up with this, it might have just been a one-hit-wonder, as I haven't made this dish again and am drawing the spices from memory, so just sample the paste and if it tastes about right, go with it!

Steps:
- Using a food processor, puree the ginger and garlic.
- Add in the rest of the sauce ingredients to form a relatively thick paste.
- It's best to refrigerate the paste for a few hours to let the flavors inter-mingle, but if you have to use it right away, than do so.
- Heat the oil over high heat, and add the scallops and shrimp when the pan (or wok) is uniformly hot.
- At the same time, boil some water for the noodles (or you can serve with rice if you want).
- Stir the shrimp and scallops frequently for about 2 minutes, until slightly browned.
- Add in the paste, and reduce heat slightly, coating the scallops and shrimp thoroughly.
- After about 90 seconds, slowly stir in a can of coconut milk.
- Reduce heat and simmer for a few minutes to reduce the liquid.
- Serve over noodles or rice.
