3/4 lb green beans, trimmed , cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces
3 stalks lemongrass
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
2/3 cup coarsely chopped shallot
1/4 cup coarsely chopped seeded, jalapeno chile
2 tbsp indian curry powder (such as madras)
1 tbsp coarsely chopped peeled, fresh ginger
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil, plus sliced leaves for garnish
1/4 cup water
2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 cups canned unsweetened coconut milk

Directions:

Cook green beans in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain. Cut 2 inches from bottom of each lemongrass stalk; discard tops. Thinly slice bottom pieces; place in processor. Add next five ingredients, chopped basil, and 1/4 cup water. Blend until paste forms.
Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add curry paste; cook, stirring often, until dry, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in coconut milk; bring to simmer. Add shrimp; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until shrimp are just opaque in center, about 5 minutes. Add green beans; stir to heat through. Season curry with salt and pepper. Transfer curry to serving bowl; garnish with basil. Serve with lime wedges (we served over jasmine rice).
