This dish was a bit too bland for me. I think it needed more salt and pepper.

I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but this dish was surprisingly good. The flavors were well-balanced and the shrimp were cooked perfectly.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but I think that's just personal preference. Otherwise, it was a great dish and I would definitely make it again.
