Cooking Steps
Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Heat a medium pot over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then rice. Cook, stirring often, until toasted, 1-2 min. Add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and bring to a boil over high. Once boiling, season with salt, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Meanwhile, peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces. Roughly chop cilantro. Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch slices. Cut bok choy into 1-inch pieces. Drain, rinse then pat shrimp dry with paper towels.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat.When hot, add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter, then onions, peppers, bok choy, peas and Indian Spice Mix. Cook, stirring often, until veggies soften slightly, 3-4 min.
Add coconut milk, 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) water, curry paste, ginger-garlic puree and shrimp to the pan with veggies. Cook, stirring often, until curry thickens slightly and shrimp are cooked through, 3-4 min.** Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in cilantro.Divide cilantro rice between bowls. Top with shrimp curry. Sprinkle crispy shallots over top.
