This was sooooooo delicious. My husband loved it. I added shrimp towards the end for more protein and served it over jasmine rice.

I made this a few nights ago, I don't know what went wrong. The flavor was off, & I followed the recipe to a "T". However I did double the recipe because we have a large family. so I umped the flavor up with about 2 1/2T more of ginger and about 2 T or curry powder + 2T of sugar. After all the tweaks it was perfect.
