  • 1/2 lemongrass stalk, finely diced
  • 4 lime leaves (or the zest of 1 lime)
  • 10 ounces fresh or frozen raw large or jumbo shrimp, peeled, deveined and tails off
  • 5.4 ounces Coconut Cream
  • 1/2 cup water or vegetable stock
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander

Instructions

Finely dice the onion, chile pepper, and lemongrass stalk. Mince the garlic cloves and peeled ginger.

In a large saucepan over medium heat, add the oil. Once the oil is hot, sauté the onion, chile pepper, garlic, ginger, lemongrass and lime leaves (or lime zest) and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes, or just until soft.

Add in the shrimp, diced eggplant and beans, coconut cream and water (or vegetable stock) to the pan, then allow to simmer, cooking for about 5 - 8 minutes, or until the shrimp have been cooked through and the vegetables are fork-tender.

Season to taste with black pepper and La Beleine Essentiels Sea Salt.

Serve over a bed of jasmine rice and garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges.
