Shrimp with drumsticks /Chemeenum Muringakkayum

When I went to the Korean store this weekend for our groceries , there was this huge basket full of fresh tender drumsticks sitting there.It is the first time I am seeing fresh ones here.Picked a few from there and wanted to try something new with them. I looked up some recipes online and found few for drumsticks with coconut milk.For a variation I added some marinated fried shrimp to the curry ,the sweetness of the fresh shrimp and the flavour of the drumsticks rounded by the creaminess of the coconut milk was amazing .
