Low-Fat Thai Coconut Curry Shrimp image

I found this recipe back in 2005 on a Canadian website called Just Add Milk (which doesn't seem to exist anymore). I've skipped the sake or sherry every time and it still turns out amazing.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover shrimp. I often make a double batch of shrimp curry and then use the leftovers for lunch or dinner the next day.
