- Wine Recommendation: You do not find many grapevines where curry is prevalent, so you'll need a really round and flexible white here; try a Pinot Blanc with mature fruit and full body.
- Beer Recommendation: This sweet and spicy kaleidoscope of flavors is best supported by a clean, light Pilsener.
- Comments: Shrimp swimming in sweet coconut lowfat milk spiked with curry Better not get between this dish and your dinner guests!
