Guyana @ 50 - White-belly Shrimp

White-belly shrimp is a variety of small shrimp that we get in Guyana. It is an everyday seafood that is mostly sautéed with vegetables. They can be made into Guyanese-style fish cakes and fritters. A favourite way to enjoy them is in the style of curry we call bunjal (dry curry); when cooked this way, we eat it with dhal and rice. Yum!
