Without intending to I doubled everything in this recipe except the shrimp! It was really great. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because I changed it just a little. I saw afterward that someone said that it didn't have enough flavor, but if you double everything else or just halve the shrimp then it is perfect! My girlfriend said it was the best shrimp she'd ever eaten!

This dish is wonderful, and the cucumber-mango salad is also good on it's own.
