Americanized Shrimp Curry

Luby Luby Luby's Note:

This recipe comes from my SIL's co-worker. I cannot remember the name she used for the recipe so I will just call it Shrimp Curry. I have adjusted the quantities because the original recipe made a very large batch. I dubbed this recipe as "Americanized" due to the addition of Emeril's "Essence". I like to eat this as a soup but DH likes it served over Basmati Rice.
