    I was expecting a dish similar to shrimp panang but it wasn't even close. It did not have a nice creamy, slightly sweet, slightly spicy taste but was instead on the bitter side. My husband thought it was so bad that he only ate 2 bites and he loves Thai food. It was less than mediocre.,.

    Saw it on your program and decided to make it that same day. Couldn't find red curry paste but used red curry powder and decreased to 1 Tbsp...just right! Omitted the peas. Used regular coconut milk instead of lite which I would definately recommend as it is thicker and tastier than the lite. Makes a nice thick sauce. Will definately make this again for entertaining friends that like Thai food. Will try with chicken next time. GREAT RECIPE!

    I wanted something different to cook for my boyfriend and guests, and this recipe was great. I fixed Thai noodles to go with it instead of the couscous. Next time I will cut back on the curry paste, because it was very spicy. I also have issues with timing, so next time I will cook the shrimp last and add it at the end so it does not get over cooked.

    What a great recipe. Soooo tasty. I used basmati rice instead of couscous. Looking forward to fixing it for company.

    So quick and easy to make. A perfect one dish meal. I actually didn't find it hot enough (take heed, I was raised in South Louisiana on spicy Cajun cuisine and added a good squeeze of Thai chili sauce to kick it up a bit. Instead of roasted red peppers, I sauteed fresh red peppers in the hot oil before adding the shrimp. Came out great!

    I made this recipe with chicken and my husband and I absolutely loved it! The basil/lime couscous was good, but not worth the effort or expense if you don't have fresh herbs on hand. The Thai Curry dish has enough flavor. I will definitely make this one again!

    I luv you Rach, but blech!!!!
    Can't understand why I used the red curry paste w/ the satay and it wasn't screaming hot...peanut butter maybe?
    But in this one....Yowza was it hot.
    Also I used the lite coconut milk (per your suggestion and actually used the entire can.

    The only flavor in this was HOT HOT HOT
    OUCH, OUCH, OUCH!!!

    I tried this today after seeing it on TV. I didn't have shrimp, fresh mushrooms or curry paste, so I used sliced-up chicken breast, chili sauce and canned mushrooms - it still came out great!!! Seems like you really can't mess this one up.

    I added a bit of lime zest, chopped cilantro, and chopped basil to mine. It turns out very saucy so next time I would use more mushrooms, peppers, etc. There's a nice tingle but no pepper 'burn' to this dish.
