Shrimp with tomato paste and garlic in a frying pan

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 20 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make shrimp with tomato paste and garlic in a frying pan? Very simple and fast! To begin, prepare the necessary ingredients according to the list. You can replace king prawns with any other type of shrimp to your taste. For example, larger Argentine ones. You can replace the tomato paste with tomato sauce or ketchup. If you wish, you can add spices to the dish to your liking. Any vegetable oil will do, I used sunflower oil.

2. STEP 2

   

   Thaw the shrimp first. Drain the water and dry the shrimp. If you wish, you can remove the head from the shrimp. Read about all the intricacies of proper defrosting in a separate article, link at the end of the recipe.

3. STEP 3

   

   Peel the ginger root and cut into thin slices. Please note that ginger will add spice to the dish. Therefore, if you want a less spicy dish, you don’t have to add ginger.

4. STEP 4

   

   Peel the garlic cloves and cut into slices.

5. STEP 5

   

   Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add shrimp and fry, stirring, for about 3 minutes. During the frying process, lightly salt the seafood. However, keep in mind that a little later you need to add soy sauce and fairly salty tomato paste. Therefore, try not to oversalt the dish. Read about how to choose the ideal frying pan, as well as how to choose the right oil, in separate articles, links at the end of the recipe.

6. STEP 6

   

   Add soy sauce, tomato paste, ginger and chopped garlic cloves to the pan.

7. STEP 7

   

   Simmer, stirring, over low heat for another 3-5 minutes until a bright aroma of garlic appears.

8. STEP 8

   

   Serve the prepared shrimp with tomato paste and garlic hot or cold. Bon appetit!
