Coconut curry shrimp
While walking around the Friday market I seen they had lovely fresh prawns, Shelled and deveined...So these we bought with no idea how I would cook them.
I found a few recipes and decided to tweak them a little bit smile emoticon
This is a lovely dish that's easy to make and the sauce is at a level for everyone.
It's not a curry as I wouldn't even consider it a mild curry dish.
It's more of a fragrant coconut shrimp dish
What you'll need 
Shrimp/Prawns Deveined ~ I used about 2 cups
Tomatos diced ~ 1 cup
Shallots chopped ~ 1/2 cup
frozen peas ~ 1 cup
Milk ~ 1/2 cup
cooking cream/single cream 1/2 cup
coconut milk ~ 1 can
Garlic ~ 1 clove minced/diced
fresh grated ginger ~ 1 teaspoon
sugar ~ 1 tablespoon
Curry powder ~ 1 1/2 tablespoons
chili powder ~ 1 tablespoon
Turmeric ~ 1 tablespoon
potato peeled and cubed ~ 1 cup
Tomato paste ~ 1 tablespoon
salt and pepper ~ a pinch

In a pan add the oil, add the curry powder, and garlic and ginger
add the shallots and potatoes and mix well and until the shallots are soft.
add the milk and cream mix and the coconut milk, mix well and
add the tomatoes, sugar, chili and turmeric.
Again mix well.
cook on a low~ ish heat for about 10 minutes 
Add the shrimp and stir well 
add the pan lid and cover and cook for about 30~40 minutes on a low heat.
After cooking for about 20 minutes add the frozen peas 
I served this over Jasmine rice
