Raisins and coconut milk add a lovely hint of sweetness to this Thai dish, and freshly grated lime peel and minced gingerroot give it a wonderful aroma and flavor.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time. The shrimp was cooked well, and the rice was fluffy, but the sauce was just too sugary. Overall, a good recipe, but needs a bit of tweaking.
