    Can substitute heavy cream for coconut milk.

    Definitely pull the shrimp out! I chopped the spinach a bit, sort of a "wide" julienne, just to make the other ingredients be seen. I think this was delicious but do not think that this will be added to the menu often due to the huge fat content.

    This did taste really nice and I used anya's tip of pulling the shrimp out after I'd simmered in the spices for a bit so they wouldn't overcook. I cooked the spinach (a bit more than suggested) as the recipe called for and mixed in the shrimp and bacon at the end. It was a delicious and quick weeknight meal I'll be adding to the repertoire.

    Delicious, but I don't recommend following the cooking instructions exactly or your shrimp will be overcooked. After searing the shrimp, I removed them to a plate, then continued with the recipe, only adding the shrimp back to the pan after the sauce had already reduced. I used much more spinach (12 oz), so wilted it separately and squeezed it dry before adding to the sauce. I used cream, omitted the basil garnish (and didn't miss it), and served over rice to soak up the flavorful sauce.
