A flavorful and creamy shrimp dish with a satay twist, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Combine the curry powder, sugar, and dried mustard in a small bowl.
Mixing the spices beforehand ensures even distribution of flavors.
In another bowl, mix the satay sauce, cream, and sherry until smooth.
Whisking the sauce ingredients helps achieve a creamy consistency.
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and cook the shrimp in batches until just pink. Remove and set aside.
Avoid overcooking the shrimp to keep them tender.
In the same pan, sauté the onion until translucent, then add the garlic and spice mix. Cook until fragrant.
Cooking the spices releases their full aroma and flavor.
Return the shrimp to the pan and pour in the sauce. Stir gently until heated through.
Stirring gently prevents the shrimp from breaking apart.
Serve the shrimp with steamed rice or noodles, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Adding a garnish like chopped cilantro enhances the presentation.
