What is Curry Shrimp Fried Rice?

This is the Indian version of fried rice using Indian curry powder, shrimp with seasonal veggies like sweet corn and broccoli.

One of my favorite goto meals on a weekday is fried rice and this one is a Hot Fav!

It is a great mix of sweet-spicy flavors and literally ready in 15 minutes.

Ingredients for Indian Shrimp Fried Rice

It has pretty simple ingredients that can be easily found in any Indian or your local grocery stores:

• Shrimp: I always use uncooked deviened and peeled
• Cooked Rice: you can use jasmine rice or any kind of rice you have in hand (including multi-colored rice)
• Curry Powder: just make sure it’s not garam masala as you do not want that here.
• Seasonal Veggies: I’m using sweet corn and broccoli, use as per choice and availability.
• Hot Sauce: can use sambal, sriracha or any other red/green/yellow hot sauce
• Seasonings

Making the Fried Rice:

We start by first cooking the shrimp in curry + hot sauce.

Then in the same pan, we cook the veggies.

Then we add cooked shrimp and rice to the sauteed veggies.

Mix and saute everything together.

And the dish is ready in 15 minutes.
