I just finished my dinner of this curry, and I can say that I thought it was very very good. I used Recipe #211223 to make the curry powder, although I did increase the chili pepper. Perhaps because I was using a fairly shallow pan, the mixture boiled over shortly after I put the lid on to simmer it. I cooked it without the lid, stirring from time to time. This is a very mild, rich and filling curry, which brings out the flavor of the shrimp (I used double the amount of shrimp only), beautifully. Thank you for posting this recipe.

I'm reserving 5 stars for the very very very best recipes, ..this was an easy dish to make & went well with plain pasta and stir fried veggies. I didn't make the curry too strong (varied tastes of guests) and made a little extra sauce (only because I had additional cream to hand)of the 4 adults present two gave 3 stars and two gave 4, and since there's no way to gauge personal preferences I leaned towards the top mark rather than the bottom one and gave it a 4 star rating. I'll write this in the family cookbook and will make it again. Great recipe :) Thanks !

I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
