Instructions
Soak twelve 12-inch bamboo skewers in warm water for 30 minutes. Thread the shrimp 1/2 inch apart on pairs of parallel skewers and place in a shallow baking dish.
In a blender or food processor, combine the garlic, ginger, Worcestershire sauce, coriander, curry powder, cloves, jalapeo and 1/2 cup of oil and puree. Season with salt and pepper.
Pour the marinade over the shrimp and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes, turning once.
In a food processor, combine the shallots, jalapeos, lemongrass, garlic, ginger, turmeric and pepper; pulse until minced. In a medium skillet, heat the oil until shimmering.
Add the shallot mixture and cook over moderate heat until fragrant and light golden, about 3 minutes.
Add the coconut milk, lime juice, brown sugar, soy sauce and a pinch of salt and simmer for 4 minutes. If the sauce separates, return to the food processor and process until it comes together.
Light a grill. Lightly oil the grate. Grill the shrimp over a medium-hot fire until just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side.
Transfer to plates and serve with the sauce.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc
Shrimp works really well with Pinot Grigio, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc. These crisp white wines work well with shrimp prepared in a variety of ways, whether grilled, fried, or in garlic sauce. One wine you could try is Santi Sortesele Pinot Grigio. It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 17 dollars.
