directions

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and stir fry just until pink and curled but not cooked through, about 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a plate and set aside.
  • Skim the thick cream from the surface of the coconut milk and add it to the skillet along with the curry paste. Cook, stirring until smooth and fragrant and a bit shiny, about 1 minute.
  • Stir in the remaining coconut milk, lemongrass, fish sauce, brown sugar, and salt and simmer for 3 minutes, uncovered.
  • Return the shrimp to the pan along with the baby corn, scallions, water chestnuts, and straw mushrooms.
  • Simmer until the shrimp finish cooking, about 3 minutes more. Pull the pan off the heat and stir in the basil, mint and the lime juice.
  • Serve with Jasmine rice sprinkled with some scallion, if desired.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I've collected recipes since I was a teen. After all these years I'm trying to get all my index cards and clippings, that still sound interesting to me, posted here so that I can find them and eventually make them! <br /> <br />I've posted some of my Mom's recipes. I regret not having paid more attention to my Grandmothers' cooking. They made some dishes that I miss and there were/are no recipes for them. <br /> <br />I have a wonderful DH and 2 wonderful sons. They are thrilled that I found this site since they directly benefit from it! Before finding 'Zaar, I was less of a cook and more of a recipe collector but now I try many more things and we're having more fun in the kitchen (at least I am)! <br /> <br />Thanks for all your ratings, comments and help in the forums AND for posting so many great recipes. You've enhanced my cooking skills and expanded my horizons! I've learned so much. <br /> <br />For fun, I also like to read fiction, travel, see movies and shows, shop (and I love to browse thrift shops and rummage/garage sales for cookbooks, etc.). <br /> <br />The discovery of a new dish does more for the happiness of mankind than the discovery of a new star Brillat-Savarin</p>
