I saw this made today on Food Safari during a program featuring the food of Mauritius. The sauce is supposedly eaten at least twice a day so I'm imagining it is used with other seafoods, meats and as a condiment. I really want to try this with my home grown tomatoes. Ingredients:
1 kg king prawns, peeled but heads and tails left on |
2 tablespoons virgin olive oil |
1 red onion, diced |
1 tablespoon garlic, finely chopped, divided for use |
1/2 cup white wine, divided for use |
500 g tomatoes, peeled and chopped |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon white pepper |
1 teaspoon paprika |
1 tablespoon cumin powder |
olive oil, extra drizzle |
2 sprigs thyme leaves |
1/2 bunch parsley, finely chopped |
2 red chilies or 2 green chilies, hot ones finely chopped |
pepper, extra for seasoning prawns |
1/2 bunch coriander, chopped |
Directions:
1. Heat oil over medium heat and add onions, 1/2 of the garlic and cook until golden. Pour in 1/2 of the wine to soften onions. 2. Add tomatoes and cook for a few minutes over high heat to reduce. 3. Stir in salt, pepper, paprika, cumin and a drizzle of olive oil. 4. Add thyme, parsley and chillies. 5. In a separate frypan, fry remaining garlic in oil. Add prawns, season with pepper and cook for 2 minutes. 6. Pour in remaining wine to deglaze pan. 7. Return prawns to rougaille and stir through coriander. 8. Serve with steamed white rice. |
