Shrimp with Spiced Masala and Coconut Milk

Shrimp masala is a recipe from a friend that originated in an old bon appetit. Two great things about this recipe: first, you can make the masala the night before, which means dinner comes together in a snap when you get home on a weeknight, and second, you could easily substitute another protein for the shrimp. The gravy is fragrant and mild, very typical of what you'd find at an Indian restaurant in the U.S. Serve with naan, and you're done!
