Curry of Shrimp
"This is not a true curry; this recipe came from my mother's recipe box. I am sure it is a very old recipe judging by the condition it is in. I am trying to get most of her "favorite" recipes posted."

DH enjoyed this dish for dinner tonight. Based on Kittencal's review I used 1 cup sour cream & 1 cup plain yogurt. Made for Photo Tag -
good recipe but needed some major changes for my family's taste, also I added in 2 teaspoons dried chili flakes for heat, the sour cream needs to be reduced buy at least 1/2 cup, it overpowders the recipe, will make again but with some adjusments, thanks for sharing Mary!...Kitten

I have two boys who will usually eat most things I put in front of them. As a single mom I use them as my guinea pigs....sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I have a huge garden, blueberry and blackberry bushes. I am always looking for a new recipe. I have three cats (Xiao Mao, which means little cat in Chinese, Pumpkin and Max) and two border collies, Lucy and Grace. All my animals come from Rescue Agencies.
