This is a very simple recipe and I came up with it at the last minute based on the ingredients I had laying around.

You will need:

Shrimp – peeled and deveined

Tamarind paste or concentrate

Dry coconut – unsweetened

oil

salt and pepper

This recipe is so simple that it is hardly a recipe.

Saute the shrimp in a little oil, seasoned with salt and red pepper.

Add a couple tbs of tamarind paste and then the coconut – stir well and cook till the shrimp are done.

They are ready to serve.

Can it be any simpler?

I think not.

This is how I served them as an appetizer – you can serve them over rice or in a wrap – the sky is the limit.

 

I really hope that you try to make this dish.  It is so delicious for the amount of effort.

Until I cook again!
