Jamaican’s love their curry, and seafood is always a nice way to have an authentic local meal that is fairly light and also a great option for those who aren’t used to the heavier traditional fare like goat or mutton.
Ingredients:
2 lbs fresh shrimps
25 fl oz oil
2 onions, chopped
1/4 shin of a scotch bonnet pepper finely chopped up
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 tomato, chopped
1/2 sweet pepper chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
black pepper
1 1/2 cups water
Method:
Heat oil. Add the curry powder and continue to fry for two minutes. Then add the tomatoes, sweet peppers, salt, pepper and other seasonings. Add water. Bring to a boil then reduce. Add shrimp. Heat and simmer for 10 minutes or until shrimp is cooked.
