Author's Notes
If you prefer a thinner curry, allow the curry to simmer for just 3–5 minutes. If you’re like me and you like your curries really thick and velvety, it will take about 10–15 minutes.
The shrimp will cook quickly (about 2 minutes or less) so keep a close eye. You will know that the shrimp is done when it starts to curl into a C-shape; there should be a bit of a gap in the middle of the shrimp (if it’s a really tight O-shape, this means that the shrimp is overcooked and will be more rubbery).
