About this Food!

"Easy Thai Shrimp Saute", is a simple to make and a classic Thai dish and its one of my favorite appetizer made for my hubby's birthday dinner party which came out excellently well and you know he just loved it...!:-) the taste was very different as it had a flavor mixture of salty,lemony, little bit sweet and the consistency of the shrimp was awesome..you have to try to feel it.

Best for a candle light dinner, when served with thai sticky  rice, naan, or crusty french loaf.
