Shrimp Coconut Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• Cook rice noodles according to package directions, then drain and rinse well with cool water. Set aside. Keep a pot of boiling water on stove for reheating noodles later.
• Toast coriander seeds, cumin seeds, fennel seeds and allspice berries in a dry pan over medium heat until fragrant, then grind in a spice mill or with a mortar and pestle.
• Put coconut oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened, about 5 to 8 minutes. Add lemongrass, garlic and ginger to softened onions and cook for 2 minutes more.
• Season with salt and pepper, then add ground coriander, cumin, fennel and allspice. Add turmeric, cayenne, lime zest and juice, fish sauce and coconut milk. Simmer gently for 5 minutes.
• Season shrimp and cherry tomatoes with salt. Add to pan and cover until shrimp are cooked, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Dip noodles briefly in hot water to reheat, then drain and divide among bowls. Spoon shrimp, tomatoes and sauce over each serving. Sprinkle with scallions and garnish with cilantro, basil and mint leaves.

Steps:

• Heat the oils in a large straight-sided pan over medium-high. Add the shrimp, season with salt and pepper and sear on both sides until you get a nice sear, about 5 minutes total. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• Back in the pan, add more oil if needed and toss in the garlic, ginger and bell pepper. Saute for one minute, then add the coconut milk, stock, noodles, fish sauce, sriracha sauce, cilantro and scallions. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and let simmer until the noodles cook through, about 5 minutes.
• Take off the heat and add a few big squeezes of lime juice. Now taste that. UGH. Need anything? Add a little salt if you want. More lime juice? Yes.
• Stir the shrimp back in and toss to combine. Serve with more cilantro on top!

Steps:

• Heat oil in large skillet or Wok on med-hi heat.
• Add onions and stir, cook for 3 minutes.
• Add garlic and ginger, cook 2 minutes.
• Add next 5 spices, cook 1 minute.
• Add tomatoes, cook 1 minute.
• Add coconut milk, water, and salt, and bring to a simmer until thickened 5-10 minutes.
• Add shrimp, simmer, stirring for 3-5 minutes.
• Stir in cilantro, lemon juice and zest.
• Serve over rice noodles with lime wedges.
• Rice Noodle Cooking Directions:.
• Place all your rice noodles in a deep mixing bowl, trying to snap as few of them as possible as you remove them from the package (always a challenge for us). Bring a good amount of water to boil. Pour the boiling water over the rice noodles until they are completely submerged.
• Every minute or two, give the noodles a stir to loosen them up. When they are completely limp, give them a taste to see if they're cooked through. The thread-like vermicelli noodles used in spring rolls will cook through in just a few minutes. The flat rice noodles might take upwards of ten minutes depending on thickness. Pay attention and test the noodles frequently because they'll become mushy if they overcook.
• Once the noodles are tender, drain them and run them under cool water to stop the cooking. Toss them with a bit of sesame oil to keep the noodles from sticking to each other if you're not going to use them right away.
• Since these noodles will be used in the above dish, you definitely want to under-cook them a bit. They will absorb more moisture and cook the rest of the way through once in the stir fry. If your noodles are perfectly cooked to start, they will turn to mush in the stir fry.
• Note: This whole recipe can be cut in half including the rice noodles.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
• Place the shrimp on a cutting board and pat dry with paper towels. Season the shrimp on both sides with the spice mixture.
• Add the flour, eggs, and panko to 3 separate shallow bowls. Add the coconut flakes to the bread crumbs and stir to combine.
• Dredge the shrimp in the flour, shaking off any excess. Dip the floured shrimp in the beaten egg, then into the panko mixture. Transfer the breaded shrimp to a baking sheet until ready to fry.
• Heat 3 inches (7 ½ cm) of canola oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350˚F (180˚C).
• Working in batches, fry the shrimp in the hot oil until golden brown on both sides, 2-3 minutes, turning halfway through. Transfer the shrimp to a wire rack to drain.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the lime juice, lime zest, sesame oil, brown sugar, and Sriracha. Using tongs, toss the rice noodles in the sauce until fully coated.
• Divide the noodles between 4 bowls. Top with the carrot ribbons, avocado, coconut shrimp, cucumber, basil, mint, cilantro, and scallions. Sprinkle with black sesame seeds, if using.
• Enjoy!
