Curried Coconut Shrimp Balls on Bamboo Spoons image

These curried coconut shrimp balls were absolutely awesome! I was very leary about making these much less trying them - I don't like coconut that much and curry and I - just don't get along! :( However, I tasted these and I was convinced - loved them thoroughly! :) Coastal Living Magazine, December 2009 edition. There is a 1 hour chill time. The disposable bamboo spoons, make cleanup a snap,; pack of 25 for $9.49 at: webrestaurantstore.com.
