For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the shrimp in a mixture of ginger-garlic paste and a pinch of turmeric for about 15-20 minutes before cooking. Adjust the amount of jalapeno pepper to suit your spice preference. For a milder dish, remove the seeds and membranes before chopping. Garnish with additional fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lemon juice for a vibrant finishing touch. Serve hot with fragrant basmati rice or naan bread for a complete and satisfying meal.
