Cooking Notes
A bit curry like but lack of coconut milk makes it a perfect accompaniment to pasta!
Excellent as is. Great meal for busy weekdays!
Added sesame oil, soy sauce and veggies
Very good, fast & easy. Added some roasted red peppers along with the shrimp because I'd just made them & why not?
