Cashew Shrimp Curry Recipes

Steps:

• Drain and rinse cashews; set aside. Heat coconut oil in a large Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium. Add onion, garlic, and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and translucent, 5-7 minutes.
• Add curry powder, turmeric, paprika, and 1¼ tsp. salt to pot and cook, stirring to coat aromatics, until toasted and fragrant, about 2 minutes.
• Add 1½ cups water to pot, scraping up any browned bits stuck to bottom with a wooden spoon. Stir in coconut milk and reserved cashews and bring just to a boil. Reduce heat so mixture is at a rapid simmer and cook, stirring occasionally and adjusting heat as needed, until cashews soften slightly and liquid is reduced by two thirds, 25-35 minutes. Remove from heat and let cashew curry sit 10 minutes (sauce will continue to thicken as it cools). Squeeze in lime juice; taste and season with more salt if needed.
• Cook's Note: Don't stress over the texture of the cashews. After their overnight soak and simmer, they'll be plenty soft-and you can't really overcook them.

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse the ginger until finely chopped. Add the 3/4 cup cashews; process until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the yogurt, cilantro, sugar, and curry powder; season with salt. Process until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed. Transfer to a serving bowl; sprinkle with the remaining cashews.
• Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the shrimp; cook until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining tablespoon oil and remaining shrimp. Serve the shrimp with the sauce.
• In a large bowl, combine the carrots, sesame seeds, vinegar, oil, and ginger. Season with salt and pepper; toss to combine.

Steps:

• Put the onion, ginger, garlic, chillies and coriander stalks in a small food processor, or pestle and mortar, and mix to a paste. Meanwhile, heat the butter or ghee and oil in a large pan. Add the paste to the pan and stir-fry for 5 mins to soften. Add the garam masala and cook for a further 2 mins until aromatic.
• Meanwhile, toast the cashew nuts in a small pan until golden. Tip half into the food processor and blend until finely ground. Set aside the remaining cashews.
• Add the blended cashews, the tomatoes and the chicken stock to the pan. Season and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, covered with a lid, for 45 mins. Add the prawns and cook for a further 2-3 mins until they turn pink, then add the yogurt and double cream and stir well. Scatter with the coriander leaves and the remaining cashew nuts, and serve with rice and naan bread.

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse the ginger until finely chopped. Add the 3/4 cup cashews; process until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the yogurt, cilantro, sugar, and curry powder; season with salt. Process until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed. Transfer to a serving bowl; sprinkle with the remaining cashews.
• Season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the shrimp; cook until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes. Repeat with the remaining tablespoon oil and remaining shrimp. Serve the shrimp with the sauce.

Steps:

• In a bowl toss the shrimp with curry powder and cinnamon and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add scallions and sauté for 1 minute.
• Then add mushrooms, water chestnuts and 1/4 cup of cilantro and sauté until mushrooms are tender and transfer to a plate.
• Using the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and start sautéing the shrimp for about 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add the chicken broth slowly and while stirring constantly.
• Return the sauté mushrooms and water chestnuts to the skillet and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let cook for about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Turn off the heat and add the yogurt slowly stirring constantly and serve immediately over rice.
• Garnish with cashews and 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro.

Steps:

• In small bowl, mix all dressing ingredients.
• Cook and drain peas as directed on bag. Rinse with cold water; drain. In medium bowl, place shrimp, celery and peas. Add dressing; toss to coat. Cover; refrigerate at least 2 hours to blend flavors.
• Just before serving, gently stir shoestring potatoes and cashews into shrimp mixture. Arrange endive leaves, pointed ends out, around edge of medium serving platter or 4 plates. Spoon shrimp mixture into center of platter or divide among 4 plates. Sprinkle with additional cashews and shoestring potatoes if desired.
