Chef’s Note: There may be variation in color and taste depending on the type of curry used. My preference is Bahola’s Indian curry or Beta-Pak. Both can be purchased at any Caribbean grocery store or on my Amazon Store Front link. Shrimp Cooks very quickly and should not cook for more than 5 minutes.
