I found this seafood curry to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more spices to give it more flavor.

This seafood curry is a bit spicy for my taste, but it's still really good. I would recommend using less chili pepper if you don't like spicy food.

This seafood curry is a great way to use up leftover seafood. I had some shrimp, mussels, and fish that I needed to use up, and this recipe was the perfect way to do it.
