Easy Curry Rice & Shrimp Casserole

Submitted by Amis227

"This is just a quick recipe that I whipped up one night when I was really wanting curry rice, shrimp, and yogurt. (I was 9 months pregnant) :D However, this recipe still tastes really good so I kept it and decided to share it. Now, when I first made this, I just grabbed a boxed curry rice kit because at the time I was out of curry and I hadn't felt like making any more. So, that's what I have listed for the recipe. Since then, however, I have made this casserole from scratch several times using my own curry, etc."

 

• Ready In: 50mins
• Ingredients: 5
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 1 (7 ounce) box thai kitchen curry yellow rice mix
• 10 ounces of prepared uncooked shrimp
• 2 cups plain yogurt
• 2 cups water
• 1 tablespoon butter

directions

1. Note: I used a 2.5 quart casserole for this. If you wish to make this from scratch the rice equalivent is 1 cup and curry is 1/4 cup or to taste. When you're cooking rice, always double the amount of uncooked rice to get the amount of water needed. For example, 1 cup of rice needs 2 cups of water.
2. Preheat the oven to 375. Combine rice, curry, shrimp, butter, and water in the casserole dish. Stir it around a bit and pop it in the oven. Cook for 25 minutes. Stir and then turn the temperature up to 400. Cook for another 20 minutes or until your rice is tender and the shrimp are done. Cooking time depends on the oven. Also, using a lid on your casserole dish may help to reduce cooking time. Remove it from the oven and stir in the yogurt. Serve immediately.
