01 Aug 2024: Ginger Garlic Shrimp with Coconut Milk

While it would be easy to claim it is too hot to cook today, my better angels took over the decision-making for meal prep. This recipe was part of the plan on food shopping day and with some beautiful looking fresh ingredients waiting to be put to use, how could I resist?

Yasmin Fahr, who contributes regularly to the NYTimes food section developed this wonderfully adaptable recipe. In the headnotes, she suggests that scallops or white fish could be easily substituted for the shrimp and that any number of quick-cooking greens could be substituted for the spinach. I love when a recipe isn’t tied to specific ingredients!

Thanks to my subscription to the NY Times, I’ve gifted the recipe below.

    Link to recipe itself goes to paid firewall, sorry. Only ingredients are given (by you..)

      Hmmmm, that is puzzling. I had gifted a copy of the recipe so as to be respectful of the recipe creator’s intellectual property. I’ll work on getting the full instructions accessible.

        So…. here’s the fine print. Gifted recipes are available 30 days from the posting. I was unaware of that policy, but it makes sense. The 30-day limit is a tad better than regular NYT gifted articles; those are available for just 10 days!

        Would someone let me know if the link I posted in a reply on the 01 August 2024 post works – I’m wondering if the reply restarted the sharing clock. Thanks!
