I couldn't find Tamarind in my grocery store, but then found some in my pantry. I noticed it said "concentrated", so I tasted it. Good thing I didn't put the 4 TBLS per the recipe. That stuff is strong. I only used 1 tsp, and the dish came out perfect!

I also didn't strain the sauce, and my family loved the little chunks of apples and bananas.

I would definitely make this again!

This recipe rocked. We wanted to do something with bananas, fish, and curry, and this was perfect. We substituted turbot fillet for the shrimp and store-bought green Thai curry paste for the spice blend, and it came out terrific.

Yes, I believe, also, that this is too much tamarind but that also just may be my taste. A lot of people like me are not big fans of tamarind. Whenever I see tamarind paste in a recipe I substitute a half and half mixture of lime juice and rice vinegar in an amount equal to the amount of tamarind called for with very favorable results. Hope this is helpful.

The Tamarind paste seems like way too much. Totally ruined my dish. Its possible that my tamarind paste is more consentrated than his. I would use your own judgement.
