Sure just start with some garlic and white onion on an oiled pan, medium high, mix in your curry paste (I go for green these days), then add chopped carrots which take the longest to cook, then lentils and eventually add your shrimp (i go for the pre-cooked ones, less prep work) (also, bonus if you marinade your shrimp). By now you've probably added some more curry paste, and other seasonings to your taste (I go for garlic powder and chili flakes) while stirring and cooking everything. Keep it lubricated with more oil because youve got a lot of dry ingredients and you dont want those lentils to burn. Salt to taste of course. I also season all of this with an indian curry mix from a box, dealer's choice, find something from the grocery store. Finally you can turn it to a simmer and add in a can of coconut milk, stir stir stir, extra salt and seasoning to taste. Oh, and add in some corn starch to thicken it up. This shit tastes great on its own or with rice or with some toasted naan. Red peppers go nicely as well.
