This recipe is a winner! The curry sauce is flavorful and the shrimp are cooked perfectly. The Coco Lopez adds a nice touch of sweetness. I will definitely be making this again.

Not bad, but not great either. The curry sauce was a bit too spicy for my taste and the shrimp were overcooked. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This dish is a flavor explosion! I love the combination of spices and the creamy coconut sauce. The shrimp are cooked perfectly and the vegetables are tender-crisp. This is definitely a dish I'll be making again and again.
