Ingredients

1/4	cup	mayonnaise
2	teaspoons	curry powder	or to taste
1	pound	shrimp	small, cleaned, deveined, cooked
2	cups	honeydew melon	balls
1/2	cup	water chestnuts	slivered, drained
1 1/3	cup	conchiglie piccole pasta	cooked (small sea-shell macaroni, measure before cooking)

Directions

Mix the curry powder into the mayonnaise. Put the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Dress with the curried mayonnaise. Chill 1-2 hours.

NOTES: A cold pasta dish. This salad is quick and easy. It's best if made several hours before serving, to get the full curry flavor. It's been a real hit at potlucks.

A honeydew ball is a ball of honeydew melon that is scooped out of the flesh of the melon with a "balling spoon" or "melon baller."

About 1 1/3 cups of conchiglie will make about three cups of cooked macaroni.

Yield: serves 4 to 6.
