Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, thinly sliced (about 3 cups)
1 jalapeno chile, finely chopped
Salt
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
4 plum tomatoes (about 1/2 pound), quartered lengthwise and cut into large chunks
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 cup sour cream or plain whole-milk yogurt
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Preparation
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, jalapeno, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add tomato paste, curry powder, and ginger. Cook, stirring to break up paste, until mixture is smooth and fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add tomatoes to skillet. Cook, stirring, until they begin to release their juices, about 1 minute. Add 1 1/2 cups water; simmer until tomatoes have slightly broken down, 3 to 5 minutes. Add shrimp; cook until opaque, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat.
Add sour cream and lime juice to skillet; stir to combine. Serve hot.
