Instructions

1

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the peeled and chunked yucca, cooking until fork-tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and set aside.

2

In a separate steamer, steam the okra until vibrant green and tender, about 5-7 minutes.

3

While the yucca cooks, heat the coconut oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Sauté the diced onions, minced garlic, and freshly grated ginger until aromatic and soft.

4

Stir in the ground allspice and the scotch bonnet ketchup, blooming the spices for 30 seconds until the scent fills the kitchen.

5

Toss in the shrimp, sautéing quickly until they turn opaque and pink, about 3 minutes.

6

Pour in the coconut milk and simmer for 2 minutes to thicken slightly into a rich, fragrant curry sauce.

7

Arrange the boiled yucca and steamed okra on a plate. Spoon the curried shrimp and the aromatic coconut sauce over the top. Serve immediately while piping hot.
