Made the recipe as written with the exception of adding 1/2 cup pasta water which I made to go with the shrimp. Sauce was perfect consistency to serve over the pasta. I quite liked the combination of paprika and dill.
Made it when I needed a recipe using shrimp and sour cream. So good, I’m serving it to 15on New Year’s Eve.
