Shrimp with Mustard Seeds and Ginger
From GMA's Food Editor and author, Sara Moulton
September 22, 2004

Sara Moulton has quick, easy recipes to make meal time less stressful for busy families on Good Morning America's Simplify Your Life series.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons yellow mustard seeds

1 tablespoon peanut oil

2 serrano chiles, seeded and minced

1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger

1 teaspoon minced garlic

4 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 pounds rock shrimp or medium shrimp, shelled and deveined

1/3 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Basmati rice or thin, quick-cooking pasta such as capellini (angel hair pasta)

Directions

In a large wok or nonstick skillet, heat mustard seeds and oil over a medium-high flame. When mustard seeds start to pop, add chiles, ginger, and garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about one minute.

Add tomatoes and salt; cook until juices are released and mixture is slightly reduced, about 2 minutes. Add shrimp and cook, stirring, until firm and pink, 3 to 4 minutes. Add cilantro and lime juice; toss until all ingredients are evenly coated.

Serve immediately over basmati rice or pasta.

Makes 6 servings.
