Instructions

  1. Prepare the tostadas
    Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Fry each tortilla for about 1-2 minutes per side until crispy and golden brown. Transfer to paper towels to drain excess oil and sprinkle with salt while still hot.
  2. Make the curry sauce
    In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic, sliced onion, and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until vegetables begin to soften. Add the red curry paste and stir for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Add coconut milk
    Pour in the coconut milk, fish sauce, and brown sugar. Stir well and bring to a simmer. Let the sauce reduce and thicken slightly for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Cook the shrimp
    Add the shrimp to the simmering curry sauce. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through. Be careful not to overcook them. Remove from heat and stir in fresh lime juice.
  5. Assemble the tostadas
    Place the crispy tostadas on serving plates. Spoon the coconut curry shrimp mixture evenly over each tostada. Top with sliced avocado and sprinkle with fresh cilantro.
  6. Serve immediately
    Serve the tostadas while still warm. Garnish with additional lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of citrus flavor if desired.
