Dinner at Home
Shrimp and Chinese Brocolli Coconut Curry
This recipe was adapted from Vij's cookbook--adapted mainly because I did not have the curry leaves on hand. Also, the curry was to be served with halibut, and I had shrimp and Chinese brocolli instead. It was delicious--creamy, yet tart surprisingly tart from the tomatos. All in all, a great one dish meal.
