In this shrimp coconut masala fry, I have opted using light coconut powder. The light version has half the calories and you don’t lose any of the rich coconut flavor. Fresh onions and curry leaves replaces traditional Indian flavors a fresh medley of ingredients with garlic, ginger, green chili peppers, and cilantro spices round up the dish and create the spicy complexity that the dish is popularly known for.

Yum amazing and delectable! Next to fish, shrimp is the believed to be the most popular seafood which is low in calories and saturated fat. This makes it a healthier alternative to other milk proteins. Shrimp comes in a varied range of size and colors, such as pink, gray, brown and yellowish. However, after the shrimps are cooked, their flesh becomes opaque and orange in color.

Shrimp is available throughout the year, fresh and frozen. The nutrient density of this seafood is very high and it is loaded with a variety of vitamins and minerals. Shrimps are also an excellent source of low-fat and low-cal protein and are abundant in Vitamin D and good source of Vitamin B12. Shrimp is loaded with Omega-3 fatty acids has anti-inflammatory properties.
