2
Add the spices (cumin, ginger, paprika and cayenne pepper) to the pan. Cook, stirring, for a few seconds.
3
Add the shrimp. Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes over high heat, stirring to avoid burning the spices. As soon as all the shrimp have turned pink, they're done. Avoid cooking for much longer past this point, because shrimp very easily become overcooked.
