Steps:

• For the Naan bread: Whisk the yeast and sugar into the water and allow to stand for a few minutes until foamy.
• Add 2½ cups flour and salt into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment.
• Pour in the yeast mixture, yogurt and oil. Knead on low speed until the dough comes together. If the dough is very sticky add more flour.
• Allow to knead until the dough is soft and smooth. Cover with a damp tea towel and allow to rise for 1 hour.
• Once risen, break off small handfuls of the dough and roll out on a floured surface.

• Add the stock, sugar, cream and lemon juice. Bring the sauce to a simmer then allow to cook for 7-10 minutes or until the sauce has reduced slightly. I prefer the sauce to be a little looser in consistency but you can thicken the sauce with cornstarch/corn flour if you prefer a thicker sauce.
• Once the sauce is the consistency you like, add the shrimp back in to the sauce and allow to cook for 1-2 minutes. Season to taste.
• Serve the curry with rice and naan bread.
