Nice change of pace. Enjoyable flavor.September 15, 2007By beercansolarheater
"We halved the recipe and it was perfect for a family of three. Even our four-year-old enjoyed it. He stayed away from the banana, but loved the curry sauce covered shrimp and rice. I personally enjoyed the flavor of the shrimp, rice, banana combination, but it kept catching me off guard as an almost desert-like flavor. My wife wondered if we could substitute chicken for the shrimp since she's not a shrimp-lover, and put on a good face since her men wanted a shrimp dish for dinner and we were all working together in the kitchen as a family. How could she pass it up? We'll try it again with chicken."
