Recipes Cuisine Asian Indian Authentic and Easy Shrimp Curry 4.7 (133) 102 Reviews 19 Photos This is a home-style South Indian shrimp curry recipe from my husband's family. It is simple and quick to make. It contains no coconut so is not sweet, just mostly juicy and as hot as you like it. Serve with basmati rice or an Indian flatbread.
