    Dayle's Coconut Curry Shrimp

    My cousin Dayle shared this Coconut Curry Shrimp recipe with me to include in my Recipe Book. At first, I was a little hesitant because my wife doesn’t like shellfish and we rarely eat dishes made with curry.

    But I decided to give it a shot as Dayle told me this was one of her favorite dishes to make for her family. And boy was she right! This is a great tasting recipe. You need to trust me on this one.

    The hardest part of this recipe is to make sure you don't overcook the shrimp. Raw shrimp takes approximately 4 to 5 minutes to cook. Just keep an eye on them and stir occasionally.

    💭 What is Garam Masala

    Never heard of Garam Masala? No worries. Check out this informative article on Garam Masala. If you are having a hard time finding Garam Masala at your local grocery store, you might have to resort to Amazon.

    The other main ingredient in this shrimp dish is Edamame. It's basically a young soybean still in the pod.

    Edamame beans are packed full of nutrients, proteins, and antioxidants and makes them an excellent source of energy and fiber. They are naturally gluten-free, low in calories, and high in essential fatty acids.
