Directions
Toss shrimp with salt, cayenne to taste and turmeric in a medium bowl.
Cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the shrimp in a single layer and cook until the undersides turn salmon-pink, about 1 minute.
Flip them over and cook for 1 minute more.
Stir in mango, scallion greens and basil and cook, stirring, until the shrimp is just cooked and starts to barely curl, 1 to 2 minutes.
