Coconut Shrimp Curry With Chickpeas And Buttery Coriander Rice

Coconut Shrimp Curry With Chickpeas And Buttery Coriander Rice



For a change I ask my hubby for his suggestions for the day's dinner menu and guess what he send me a link a cooking blog which had featured a recipe with shrimp and chickpeas simmered in coconut milk. A weird combination and frankly specking I haven't prepare seafood with chickpeas before. There's always time for new combination right and no harm trying it out.

After going tru the featured recipe I decide to give shot and alter the recipe accordingly to my family's tastebud and my magic touch. I have a habit of leaving my magic presence in all my cooking. Growing up my dad never used coconut milk in anything, so it's not common at all in our cooking but I like to experiment and try different types of dishes yet I didn't til I got married as my hubby loves coconut. This is why I love cooking so much as I get to play with my ingredients and try to come out with all kinds of interesting and delectable dishes. 


When I start blogging in 2009 my hubby used to joke by saying that I would be running out of recipes. I always brush off his comments knowing that there's a pool of recipes to try around there world. Therefore its unlikely for me to be running out of recipes unless I'm afraid to try out different cuisine which I'm not!! I'll will try out anything kind of cooking once- if I like it I'll will prepare then often and if I don, well at least I can say that I tried it or try to get the perfect taste again.

Well my Coconut Shrimp Curry With Chickpeas features delicious shrimp in coconut curry that's perfect over cooked buttery coriander rice and ready in only 25 minutes!. super easy, one pot with tons of flavors.
