5. 2 tablespoons ground coriander
6. 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
7. 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
8. 1/8 teaspoon cayenne
9. 1/8 teaspoon turmeric
10. 1 cup drained whole canned tomatoes, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (from a 15-ounce can)
11. 2 1/2 cups canned unsweetened coconut milk (from two 15-ounce cans)

14. 1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, shelled

1. In a large frying pan, heat the oil over moderately high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.
2. Add the coriander, cumin, cinnamon, cayenne, and turmeric and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the coconut milk, water, and salt and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat and cook at a low boil, stirring frequently, until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes.
