Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Make the sweet potato mash
- Peel the sweet potatoes. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise, then crosswise into ¼-inch-thick half-moons.
In a medium sauce pot, add the sweet potatoes and enough lightly salted water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, reduce to a vigorous simmer, and cook until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.
Add half the coconut milk and all the curry powder. Using the back of a spoon or a masher, mash the potatoes, adding more coconut milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm.
While the potatoes are cooking, start preparing the rest of the meal.
2
Prep the shrimp
- Finely chop, press, or grate enough garlic to measure 1 teaspoon [2 tsp].
- Zest and juice the lime.
- Coarsely chop the cilantro.
- Remove the stem, ribs, and seeds from the jalapeño; finely chop the jalapeño. Wash your hands after handling.
- Rinse and drain the shrimp. Pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a medium bowl, stir together the shrimp, garlic, lime zest and juice, cilantro, and as much jalapeño as you like. Let stand while you prepare the bell pepper.
3
Prep the bell pepper; cook the pepper and shrimp
- Remove the stem, ribs, and seeds from the bell pepper; thinly slice the pepper.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Stir in the bell pepper and cook until starting to soften, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the shrimp and marinade and cook, turning once, until firm and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from the heat.
Serve
Transfer the sweet potato mash and shrimp to individual plates. Garnish the potatoes with the sesame seeds and serve.
