For a richer flavor, consider using full-fat coconut milk. Adjust the amount of curry powder to your preference. Start with 2 teaspoons and add more to taste. If using shrimp or crab, be careful not to overcook it. It should be just cooked through and still tender. Serve with basmati rice or naan bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
