Classic Guyanese Baked Shrimp Bake

Assemble the ingredients: shrimp, paprika, parsley, cumin, potato, carrot, olive oil.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the shrimp and cook until baked.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Guyanese flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Guyanese accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
