Super Light Version of Curried Shrimp
I missed my friend P's birthday celebration because my son was a little sick. The following Monday she raved about the Indian Restaurant they went to. She talked about the mouth-watering dishes and the dessert they made at their table. I couldn't stop thinking about Indian Food. However, going to an Indian Restaurant means overeating and I am trying to eat smaller portions and fewer calories. I remembered making a light curried shrimp a while ago that was delish and quick. So I went back to my recipe files and found it. Recipe - check; Shrimp - check; Curry - check; A few minutes later I had a satisfying and healthy dinner. I served with brown rice instead of white.
