This dish coconut curry shrimp is really delicious, it really goes very well with noodles or spaghetti, so this dish is perfect for dinner. By the way this dish is also perfect for serving at cocktail parties and dinner parties and all other functions etc.

Fast, easy, and tasty. I will make this again with rice and veggies. The curry warms the dish without being too spicy. I did salt and pepper my shrimp before cooking in the sauce.

This was delicious!! I read the other reviews and added hot pepper flakes. Didn’t taste like much until I added the shrimp. Also let the liquid simmer longer for a little extra thickness. Loved it!!!!
Joseph Lewis
Good fast recipe overall. I added crushed red pepper and cashews which took it to a good place for me and I served it over rice noodles. It was a little bland (but hey for 5 ingredients…not bad but I will definitely try it again adding more spices!

Tonight was our second time preparing these. The first time we cooked them just as the recipe stated and they were good. This time we added extra spice as previous reviewers recommended and they were outstanding! We added garam masala, coriander, tumeric, cumin and cayenne pepper. We just had them as a side dish/app with fish tacos but will definitely try them with rice as a main dish next time!

I created an account with food network, just so I could express how much this recipe rocks! I used a bag of frozen shrimp, so nothing special, and followed the recipe to the letter. I then added at least 1 tablespoon (or more of red pepper flakes, because my husband and I enjoy spicier foods. Served it with sticky rice and grilled asparagus. Soooo good. Thank you Claire Robinson!|
