Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    Chow mein noodles can be used instead of shoestring potatoes.
  • tip 2
    The shrimp mixture can be made up to 24 hours ahead of time; add cashews and potatoes just before serving. Also, the endive leaves can be separated, washed, wrapped in a damp paper towel and stored in a plastic bag up to 24 hours before serving.
  • tip 3
    You may find several types of curry powder in your grocery store, but the most common blends are labeled either curry powder (mild) or Madras curry powder (a bit hotter).
