Shrimp Masala

Masala is a typical Indian dish where the garam masala seasoning gives a unique and special flavor to the preparation. Usually it is made with some type of meat fried in ghee, which is a clarified butter, to enhance the flavor of garam masala. The dish can also be made without any meat or with soy for a vegetarian version.
In my case I used pink shrimp and bottle butter to add my special touch. The masala is delicious served with jasmine rice and that day I made a brown jasmine rice, which I had never tried before. It is a little less sticky than normal jasmine and is very tasty and aromatic, in addition to being healthier.
