It's as perfect for dinner parties as it is for a cozy meal at home. Hello again everyone, it's Sabrina again from Cooking with Points – a recipe blog dedicated to Weight Watchers friendly recipes. Indian curries at my favorite restaurants have always been difficult to enjoy on Weight Watchers because of the heavy use of cream in recipes. Allow curry to simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until shrimp are cooked through and opaque. At this point you can taste-test the curry and decide if you'd like more heat (cayenne or red pepper flakes may be added to amp up the spiciness) or extra of any of the ingredients.
