Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp tomato paste
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp white sugar
1 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/8 tsp ground red pepper
3 tbsp fresh cilantro, minced
1 fresh jalapeno pepper, chopped
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 cup coconut milk
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp black mustard seeds
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/4 lbs medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp cold water
5 cups cooked rice

Directions:

In a medium bowl, stir together tomato paste, salt, sugar, garam masala, ground cumin seed, ground red pepper, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, lemon juice, and coconut milk. Set coconut sauce aside.
Heat oil in a wok or frying pan over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add the mustard seeds, and cook until they begin to pop. Immediately stir in garlic, and cook until garlic begins to brown.
Add shrimp, and cook until shrimp is opaque; this should take only a minute or two. Pour the coconut sauce over the shrimp; cook until the sauce begins to simmer.
In a small bowl, mix together cornstarch and water; stir into the sauce, and continue cooking until thick.
