I got this recipe off of zaar well over a year ago, it has been my go to quick healthy dinner ever since! My bf loves shrimp but I'm not generally a big fan- in this recipe I love them! I use 1 large can of diced tomatoes instead of the plum tomatoes (cheaper/faster) I don't like ginger so I add Garam Masala instead. I serve it on a bed of brown rice. Warning: Do not go too crazy with the spices! The first time I made it I found it a little mild for my taste but the second time I added way too much and could hardly eat it! up the amounts slowly... :) Thanks for posting this! I pass it on to anyone who will listen :)Â

This is very flavorful. I can't really taste shrimp so I always stir fry it seperately with hot red pepper flakes and pressed garlic thrown in at the last possible moment just to get it fragrant. Had it with Coconut Ginger Rice #29704 and canned black beans with cinnamon, sugar and cumin thrown in. Any dish like this one needs at least a couple of chopped jalpenos tossed in to make it healthy. MMMMMMgood.Â

This was so good. I tagged it in the ABC Healthy Recipe game. I did add the extra curry powder and Garam Masala as suggested by a previous reviewer. I used canned tomatoes but when I drained them, I kept the juice and added back some of it as I wanted to serve this dish over rice and wanted to make sure there was plenty of sauce for that. I will be moving this one to my "Tried and True" cookbook. Thanks for posting TGirl.Â

My name is Teresa, and I live in Lake Worth, Florida. I've been away from Zaar for a few years now..time sure flew! Lots has changed...some for the better, some not so much. I'm single again, and my cat, Stetson, passed away. Hopefully, I'll be around more and get back into the swing of things..I missed you guys!
