I've avoided shrimp in my curry since the first time I tried it, because the shrimp were mushy in a way I'd not experienced before prior ...
 
buddy notes to simmer for only a minute or two at the end ... and I think that would prevent what I'm talking about, because I'm sure we left it there for 20-30 mins to let the flavors combine ...
 
I will have to try curry w/ shrimp again, now, because I would like to be able to have some of my curry dishes w/ shrimp - and I think this post goes right, where we'd gone wrong ...
 
Thanks for sharing.
 
I have not made shrimp curry, but I a sure it is very similar to when I make seafood gumbo.  I actually wait until the end, turn the heat off, and THEN add the shrimp.  The residual heat is more than enough to cook them.
 
I would have been inclined to douse it w/ RED powder, and then I'd have drank it inside out and got up for a second bowl ... which I'd have had by teh teaspoon, mindfully.
 
I added powder after.  I don't like that it turned out a little runny.  Tastes damn good though.  First time I have worked with Kaffir.
 
I keep a little prep dish w/ a slurry of corn starch (I have also, but haven't tried yet, tapioca starch for this) whenever I do Asian these days ...
 
I also have a jar with some kaffir leaves and a kaffir leaf powder, neither of which I have tried yet ...
 
How was the flavor? ...
 
As described, then ...
 
I try a single leaf the first time, LOL ...
 
I have to figure out the right meat to use for velveting some beef for my Asian exploration ...
 
Hey buddy that's a nice summer meets winter curry with zucchini and sweet potato. Very nice!
 
Nice too P2K!
 
Very nice curry there Jay, I just wouldn't dig large pieces of chicken breast like that. I'd pound the breast down to a 1/2" and cut into uniform pieces.
 
The King of Curry sent me a recipe and a few supplies,so Ima jack his thread  :high:
