Instructions
In a heavy-bottomed pan or kadhai, heat a splash of water and add the diced red onion. Sauté over medium heat until translucent and starting to caramelize.
Add the ginger, garlic, and turmeric paste, cooking until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Stir in the tomato purée and cook for 3-4 minutes until the sauce deepens in color.
Add the sliced okra and a small amount of water to prevent sticking; cover and simmer for 5 minutes until the okra is tender but not mushy.
Pour in the light coconut milk and bring to a gentle simmer.
Fold in the raw shrimp, cooking for 3 minutes until they turn opaque and pink. Do not overcook.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, fresh coriander, and a squeeze of lime juice for brightness.
Serve immediately in a wide bowl over a scoop of fluffy basmati rice, ensuring the curry coats the grains.
