In this quick shrimp recipe, shrimp is paired with a coconut curry and tender eggplant. Red, yellow or green curry works well in this quick dinner. To keep it fast, serve with precooked brown rice to sop up the sauce.

Thought this was very good but also added more curry paste based on previous review, and whoa! A little bit too much curry, I need to add just a small amount more then recipe. Very tasty and I even switched up and sautated the eggplant with fresh garlic 1st , removed from pan before adding coconut milk and curry. And returned to pan after.
