Pickled Shrimp-Kerala Style

Name: Pickled Shrimp-Kerala Style
Ingredients: 1lb medium sized, deveined and shelled shrimp; 1 tbsp red chili powder; 1/4 cup finely sliced ginger; 1/4 cup finely sliced garlic; 1/2 tsp turmeric powder; 1 tsp mustard seeds; 1/2 tsp fenugreek seeds powder; 2 – 3 pinches of asafoetida powder; 3 green chilies finely chopped; 1/2 tsp whole black pepper corns; 1 – 2 sprigs of curry leaves; 1/4 cup vinegar; oil as required (I use sesame oil – the golden, cold-pressed kind not the dark brown from toasted seeds found in the chinese market. It gives a very distinct flavor to the pickle. You can use any refined oil if you aren’t too fond of sesame); salt to taste.
