The flavor of this was wonderful. I didn't have shrimp so I used fried tofu puffs. Very yummy. I gave this three instead of four stars because the recipe was kind of hard to follow. The big chunk of text in part 3 made it so hard to keep track of where I was. I did really like this dish though, so next time that I make it I hope things go more smoothly.
