I love me some curry especially the decadent coconut milk kind. It’s surprising how easy and quick it is to actually make curry sauce at home. Mind you, the protein options are endless. I have made both chicken and fish curry in the past.  I chose shrimp for this recipe because it’s amazingly quick and doesn’t require much prep work.  You can whip this up in less than 20 minutes. If you live in Nigeria, please try using fresh shrimps. It’s a million times better than frozen.
