VADOUVAN ORANGE SHRIMP



Vadouvan Orange Shrimp image

Here, vadouvan, a south Indian seasoning, turns a weeknight seafood dish into something unforgettable, with its complex curry flavors mingling with tangy orange juice to make an addictive sauce for plump, sweet shrimp. Having a batch of vadouvan in the freezer is as good as a pot of gold in our books, says Gourmet magazine. Time does not include the the vadouvan which needs to be made ahead. Vadouvan keeps in the refrigerator 1 month (cool before covering) or in the freezer 6 months.
