Directions
~~~~~~~~ Indian Spiced Shrimp Recipe: ~~~~~~~~
1. Rinse the shrimp in cold water and pat them dry.
2. In a large bowl (or ziplock bag) combine the lime juice, garlic, ginger, mustard seeds, turmeric, ground cumin, ground coriander and garam masala. Mix well.
3. Add the shrimp to the marinade and toss to coat. Allow the shrimp to marinade for 20 minutes at room temperature.
4. Once the shrimp have marinated, add the ghee to a large pan over medium high heat (Alternatively, you could put the shrimp on skewers and grill them.) Stir-fry the shrimp for approximately 3 minutes, or until they are cooked through. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Toss in the chopped coriander and stir so that it coats the shrimp evenly. Add a little extra lime juice, if you feel it”™s necessary.
Yogurt, Garlic and Cilantro Dipping Sauce (Garlic and Cilantro Raita) Recipe:::
1. In a medium sized bowl add the greek yogurt, garlic and cilantro. Using a whisk, beat the mixture until everything is well combined and the yogurt is smooth.
2. Squeeze a little fresh lime juice into the mixture (I used about 1 tbsp, I think). Season with salt, pepper and chaat masala. Add a small pinch of sugar if you would like a little sweetness. Whisk everything to combine.
3. Thin the sauce with water until you reach your desired consistency.
