1-1/2 tbsp. yellow curry powder

1 (13.5 oz.) can coconut milk

2 tbsp. honey, plus more to taste

Nurodymai

If using uncooked shrimp, in a large skillet, heat the butter over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, turning them over halfway through, until fully cooked. Remove to a plate and set aside.

If using precooked shrimp add 1 TBSP of butter and let it melt. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and stir to cook for 2 minutes. Sprinkle the curry powder over the onions and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for another couple of minutes.

Reduce the heat to medium and pour in the coconut milk, stirring to combine. Add the honey, salt, and lime juice, and allow the sauce to cook until bubbling gently for 4 to 5 minutes to thicken the sauce.

Add the shrimp to the sauce, tossing to coat, and allow it to simmer until slightly thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste the sauce and add more salt, lime juice, or honey if you like. Stir in the basil and add hot sauce if you want a little kick.

Stir in the rice, topping with more basil.

Pastabos

Increased curry by 1/2 tbsp because it needed more of it.

May need to increase honey to compensate for the additional curry.

Optional:

Try 2 tbsp of maple syrup or 3 tbsp molasses in place of honey.

Add 3/4 tsp ground turmeric

Add 1 tsp ground cumin
