Ingredients

Base Recipe: Sweet Coconut Shrimp Curry:

  • 1 Tbsp. coconut oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 1/2 tsp. nightshade-free curry powder (see options below)
  • 1/8 tsp. cardamom (omit for strict AIP)
  • 3/4 tsp. sea salt
  • 2 cups coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 lb. peeled and deveined shrimp
  • 3 cups broccoli (frozen is fine)

Nightshade-Free Seeded Curry:

My recipe and recommended if you tolerate seed-based spices

  • 2 Tbsp. ground coriander
  • 2 Tbsp. ground cumin
  • 4 tsp. ground turmeric
  • 2 tsp. black pepper
  • 1 tsp. ground ginger
  • 1 tsp. dry mustard

Nightshade-Free Seedless Curry:

From the former blog, Feed Me Rachel (use for strict AIP)

  • 1/2 Tbsp granulated garlic
  • 1/2 Tbsp granulated onion
  • 1/2 Tbsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp dried cilantro
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1 tsp dried dill weed
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/4 tsp ground clove

Instructions

  1. Choose your nightshade-free curry recipe. Whisk the ingredients together and put in a spice jar.
  2. If you’re making homemade coconut milk, get that ready in advance.
  3. Melt coconut oil in medium pot over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté 5 minutes.
  4. Add spices and sauté until fragrant.
  5. Add coconut milk and water, bring to a boil then reduce heat. Simmer uncovered for 5 minutes.
  6. Add shrimp and broccoli. Return pot to a boil. Then reduce heat and simmer 3-5 minutes, just until shrimp turns pink and broccoli is warmed through. Enjoy!

Notes

  1. Meal Planning Note: This recipe is delicious and it’s tempting to eat a lot, but it’s also very rich. I recommend eating it as 4 small servings, with a vegetable on the side to fill out the meal. Cauliflower rice is a nice side dish. You can even serve the curry on top of the “rice”, if you like.
  2. If you have access to Wild Pink Oregon Shrimp, that’s what you see in the photo above. It’s a small shrimp caught in sustainable fisheries, and it’s sold in the frozen food aisle, pre-peeled and pre-cooked. If you don’t have access to that, this recipe works well with any shrimp.
