Awesome recipe Annacia. The picky dh gave it 5 *'s. The shrimp and coconut sauce was spicy, spicy spicy. We really enjoyed the flavors and textures in this tasty dish; it was perfect served over jasmine rice. The only changes to your recipe were that I used what I had on hand, that said I used coconut oil instead of the palm oil and fresh green thai chilies instead of the dried red chilies and omitted the walnuts because of dh's allergy. The dish was very flavorful and full of depth. We both enjoyed the tomatoes and broccoli in this dish, yes, even me. Thank you for sharing another winner which has gone into my keeper box.
