Creamy Coconut Curry with Shrimp and Corn

Step 1

CURRY PASTE: combine the ingredients for the curry paste in a blender and blend until completely smooth.

Step 2

SHRIMP + CORN COCONUT CURRY: Heat the oil in a large deep skillet over medium high heat. Add the prepared paste and turmeric and cook for about 2-4 minutes or until it's fragrant and thickens into a paste. Add the chicken broth, coconut milk, and salt and allow the curry to come to a simmer before adding in the shrimp and corn. Allow the curry to come back to a simmer before lowering the heat. Cover and let it cook for 5-7 minutes or until the shrimp curl into a 'c' shape. Turn the stove off, add 2 tablespoons of the lemon juice and give it a taste. Add the third tablespoon if desired. I prefer mine with 3 tablespoons.

Step 3

SERVE: The curry with be a little thin, it's thinner than a traditional curry but thicker than a soup. I like to serve it in a bowl with rice and top it with red pepper flakes and chopped cilantro!
