Chilly Shrimp/Prawns

Well, I have tried Chilli Chicken and Chilly Cauliflower/Gobi ample number of times but this time it’s Chilly Shrimp. As I had mentioned in my earlier post, I started making Spicy battered shrimps but before I could make the gravy for Chilly Shrimps, we finished half of the deep fried battered shrimps 🙂
With the remaining half, I continued making Chilly Shrimps.

Here is my recipe for Spicy Chilly Shrimps. This recipe has 2 parts:-

  • The first part is making spicy deep fried battered shrimps.
  • The second part involves making a Spicy Chilly Gravy and mixing the deep fired shrimps.

Ingredients

  1. Onions (diced) – 1
  2. Bell Pepper (diced)  – 1 medium
  3. Chopped Spring Onions – 3
  4. Finely diced Ginger – 2 tbsp
  5. Finely chopped Garlic – 2 tbsp
  6. Soy Sauce – 2 tbsp
  7. Tomato Sauce/Ketchup – 3tbsp
  8. Hot and Sweet Chilly Sauce – 2 tbsp
  9. Red Chilly Powder – 1 tsp
  10. Black Pepper Powder – 1/2 tsp
  11. Salt – To taste
  12. Oil – 2 tbsp
  13. MSG/Ajinomoto – 1/2 tsp (optional)

Preparation Method

  1. The first part of the recipe involves preparing a spicy batter, dipping the shrimps in the batter and deep frying it. You can view the recipe for making Fried Shrimps here. Allow the fried shrimps to cool completely.
  2. Heat oil in another pan and saute the onions, ginger and garlic till the onions become translucent.
  3. Next add capsicum pieces and saute for a few minutes till it’s almost cooked.
  4. Add the spring onions and saute for 2 minutes.
  5. Stir in 1 tsp chilly powder, 3 tbsp tomato sauce, 2 tbsp hot and sweet red chilly sauce, 2 tbsp soya sauce and salt.
  6. Add the fried shrimp and mix well so that the gravy is coated on the shrimp.
  7. Sprinkle 1 tsp pepper powder and 1/2 tsp ajinomoto (optional).
  8. Cover and steam for 5 minutes.
  9. Serve as starters or as side dish along with Fried Rice/ Noodles.
  10. Fried Chilly Shrimps
