I don't remember the first time I had this shrimp curry (my dear Mudder's version) as a kid, but after my mother made it once, I requested the dish every birthday. Serve it with shredded sweet coconut, chopped dry-roasted peanuts, pineapple tidbits, raisins, chopped bacon, chutney, chopped egg, or chopped tomato. Because this recipe calls for adding condiments of your choice, everyone at the table will have a customized plate and taste a bit different.
