Ingredients:	1 pound jumbo shrimp, unpeeled 1 tablespoon curry powder 1/2 teaspoon allspice 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 cups frozen mango cubes, thawed 1/4 cup water 2 teaspoons canola oil 1 small red onion, finely chopped 1 tablespoon minced fresh peeled ginger 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions:	Hands-On Time: 5 Minutes Cook Time: 10 Minutes 1. Toss together the shrimp, curry powder, allspice, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a medium bowl until the shrimp are evenly coated. Let stand about 5 minutes. 2. Meanwhile, put the mango and water in a blender or food processor and puree; set aside. 3. Heat the oil in a medium nonstick saucepan set over medium-high heat. Add the red onion, ginger, sugar, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt; cook stirring frequently, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Add the mango puree; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat and simmer 1 minute. Remove the saucepan from the heat. 4. Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and set over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook until lightly browned and just opaque in the center, about 2 minutes on each side. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with the sauce and plenty of napkins.
