Re: Pasta & Shrimps in spicy creamy salsa peanut butter sauce
Ok there you go the recipe.
Please I am not big into measuring therefore all the stuff is in approximation. Key is taste your sauce and if you feel the need of something more then the other, then add more of it.
Onion paste 1-2 tsp
Garlic paste/finely chopped 1 tsp
Salsa 3-5tbsp
Tomato puree 2 tbsp
Chunky peanut butter roughly 1 tbsp
Green chili salsa roughly 1 tsp (optional) Use any chilies you have
Chinese red chili paste ¼- ½ tsp ( I think it is called smbel oneik or something like that)
Yogurt or milk ( I was out of milk so added yogurt, I think I had added almost 5 whisked tbsps. If you use milk it will be almost a little more then ¼ cup of milk)
Salt and blk pepper to taste
Shrimps---defrosted, de-veined and shelled
So in a skillet heat some oil, add onion and garlic paste, brown it for few mins. Then add salsa and tomato puree, green chili and red chili, salt and pepper. Cook the sauce for few mins, then slowly add yogurt or milk and keep whisking for few mins, then add shrimps and let them cook for few mins. If the sauce looks a bit runny let it cook for a few more mins then add the peanut butter, keep staring it and after a min or two add boiled noodles, turn down the heat to low and incorporate the sauce in the noodles. Take a fork and do a taste check, if you feel something is missing, add something, if it tastes all happy…lol… turn it in a plate, garnish with fresh or dry cilantro/parsley. Take a picture, post it on GS, and then enjoy your pasta. :D
