This is a great appetizer, or entree served with coconut rice. The shrimp is soft and tender from the marinade and the sauce is thick, sweet and peanut-y. It’s a real treat!







2 1/2 pounds jumbo shrimp, raw and peeled

Combine the marinade:
1/2 can coconut milk
1 tsp salt
4 tbsp sugar
2 spoonfuls curry powder

Stir then add shrimp and let marinate for up to 2 hours. Put on skewers and grill. Brush on some peanut sauce (recipe below) during grilling.

Peanut sauce recipe:
1/2 can coconut milk
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup peanut butter
1 spoonful thai curry paste, red (optional)


Combine all ingredients in small pan over medium heat until dissolved (4-5 minutes). Brush some on shrimp after grilling. Put the rest on a  side plate for dipping.

Serves 4
