Caribbean Curry Shrimp with Coconut Rice & Fries

Step 1

Start rice in a pot with 2 cups water and a pinch of salt; bring to boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer 15 minutes until tender.

Step 2

While rice cooks, bake fries on a sheet pan at 400°F for 15 minutes until golden, stirring halfway.

Step 3

Heat 1 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high. Add curry paste and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in coconut milk and stir to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer, then slide in shrimp and cook 4 minutes until pink and opaque.

Step 5

Squeeze lime juice over shrimp, taste, and season with salt and pepper. Stir in half the scallions.

Step 6

Fluff rice with a fork and divide between plates. Top with curry shrimp, serve fries alongside, and pass hot sauce for dipping. Garnish with remaining scallions.
