Shrimp Salsa

Ingredients

Shrimp (medium) : 1-1/2 lb.
Salsa Sauce (medium spicy): 1/2 bottle
Turmeric : 1tsp
Onions : 1 large (finely chopped)
Ginger : 1 tsp. (grated)
Jalapeneos : 1/2 no. (finely chopped); or 2 green chilies
Oil : 1/2 cup
Salt : to taste
Sugar : 1/2 tsp.

Method:

1. De-vein and wash the shrimps and marinate them with salt and turmeric for 30 minutes.
2. Take 4 tablespoons of oil in a non-stick wok and lightly fry the shrimps till golden brown. Drain and set aside.
3. Add remaining oil in that same wok and put finely chopped onions and fry till golden brown. Then add ginger paste and fry for 2 minutes.
4. Add the Salsa Sauce, salt and Jalapeneos and stir on low heat for 15 minutes till oil leaves the sides of the pan and the paste is smooth and well blended.
5. Add the fried shrimps and a little sugar into this mixture and stir for another 2 minutes (shrimps tend to get hard on being over-cooked).
6. Decorate with green chilies and serve hot and enjoy with both Rice and Parathas.
