Lets heat our iron pot. Once smoking hot add 1tbs oil

Roast rapidly like in stir fry. Avoid burning the shrimps. 

When they achieve a certain roasted stage get them off the heat in a bowl. 

Now semi brown onions to medium brown. Add tomatoes and roast till the oil separates.

Cook them together for another 10 minutes till the curry achieves to your expected consistency. 

I made a medium consistency curry as it goes well with rice or chapatti. 

Serve warm with some fresh cilantro mince garnish.
