The recipe was easy to follow, but the shrimp balls didn't turn out as crispy as I expected. I think I'll try frying them for longer next time.

The shrimp balls were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try using a different type of shrimp next time.

I thought the curry flavor was a bit too strong for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less curry powder.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I'm so glad I did! The coconut flavor is subtle and complements the shrimp perfectly. I highly recommend this recipe for anyone who loves shrimp.

I love how versatile this recipe is. I've tried different types of shrimp, and I've even made a vegetarian version using tofu. The curry coconut sauce is so flavorful that it works well with any type of protein.
