Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams baby potatoes
- 300 grams shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 200 ml coconut milk
- 1.5 tablespoons Thai red curry paste
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
- 1.5 teaspoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 2 stalks green onions (sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut them into halves. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the potatoes out on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Roast them in the oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
While the potatoes are roasting, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet, cooking until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Stir in the Thai red curry paste and cook for another minute to release its flavor.
Pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, lime juice, and add the brown sugar. Stir well to combine, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through.
Once the potatoes are done roasting, transfer them to a serving platter. Pour the Thai shrimp curry mixture over the roasted potatoes.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and sliced green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy your Thai Shrimp Potatoes!
