This is a delicious prawn recipe. I chop the heads off before cooking them but I leave the shells on (this is more flavourful but takes a bit of effort when eating it. You can shell first if you want, it will still be tasty :) ) You can adjust the amount of coconut and cayenne to suit yourself. It is a great dish to make when you are pressed for time or when you have unexpected guests because it takes so little time to prepare. Ingredients:
1/2 cup prawns |
1/2 onion |
1 medium tomato |
1/4 teaspoon turmeric |
1/2-1 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
2 teaspoons oil (for frying) |
1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste (see my recipe for this) |
3 -5 chives |
1 sprig green coriander |
salt |
1/4 cup coconut milk or 1/2 tablespoon creamed coconut |
Directions:
1. Heat oil and add onions.
2. When brown, add tomato and spices, salt.
3. Add 1/4 cup water and stir.
4. Add prawns (with or without shells- with shells on adds more flavour).
5. Add coconut/ or coconut milk.
6. When prawns are cooked, add chopped green coriander.
7. just before serving, put a few chives on top to garnish.
8. Serve with steamed rice or with my Tomato Rice.
