CURRY SHRIMP AND RICE
My family and I absolutely love curry shrimp and rice. I created this version so I I can make it in a hurry. Except for the butter and shrimp, all the ingredients are right in my pantry. To add a little heat, we like to stir in a tablespoon of fresh ground chili paste. -Angela Spengler, Niceville, Florida

This is a wonderfully spiced curried shrimp and rice main dish. It's a quick one-pot dish ready in about 30 minutes. A cool cucumber-yogurt Raita makes a great accompaniment to serve alongside this dish.
