Yellow Curry Shrimp is a flavorful dish inspired by Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly Thai cooking. It features tender shrimp simmered in a creamy yellow curry sauce made with coconut milk, turmeric, and aromatic spices like lemongrass, ginger, and garlic. Often paired with vegetables such as bell peppers, carrots, or green beans, and served over jasmine rice, this dish offers a harmonious balance of sweet, savory, and mildly spicy flavors. From a nutritional standpoint, the shrimp are an excellent source of lean protein and essential nutrients like selenium and vitamin B12. The coconut milk adds richness but also contributes saturated fats, so portion control is key. Turmeric, a defining ingredient in the curry, is known for its anti-inflammatory properties. While nutrient-dense, the dish's caloric content can vary depending on the amount of coconut milk and added oils, making it important to enjoy as part of a balanced meal.
