Instructions:

Saute Aromatics: In a heavy skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of butter and olive oil. Saute the finely chopped onion along with the curry powder until the onion turns translucent and the aroma of the curry fills the air.

Add Shrimp and Seasonings: To the skillet, add the jumbo shrimp (peeled and deveined), sprinkle with sugar, grate fresh ginger over the shrimp, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Saute for 3-4 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and opaque. Once cooked, transfer the shrimp to a plate and set aside.
-
Prepare Sauce Base: In the same skillet, melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter. Stir in the flour and cook for about 5 minutes until it forms a golden paste.
-
Create Creamy Sauce: Gradually pour in the heavy cream, followed by chicken stock and coconut milk, while stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Continue stirring until the mixture becomes smooth and thick, coating the back of a spoon.
-
Incorporate Shrimp and Snap Peas: Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, along with the sugar snap peas. Allow them to heat through in the creamy coconut curry sauce, ensuring all ingredients are well-coated and heated evenly.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Once heated through, your flavorful Shrimp Curry with Coconut Milk and Sugar Snap Peas is ready to be served. Dish it out alongside steamed rice to soak up all that delicious sauce, and indulge in a taste of Hawaiian-inspired cuisine right in the comfort of your own home.
