Prawn Curry
This is another classic recipe that has been on chow and chatter but its so easy to make and packs a spicy punch! Ingredients:
- fresh or frozen prawn/shrimp (i call them prawns!)
- 1/2 red onion
- 2 small tomatoes
- 1/4 cup frozen coconut
- fish fry masala in Indian store to taste, about a tablespoon
- curry leaves
- green chilis or dried rice ones
- ginger/garlic paste
- pinch of chili powder
Method:
- heat canola oil, add onion, green chili and curry leaves, then add chili powder, and cook for a few minutes until the raw smell goes away
- add the chopped tomatoes, salt and fish fry masala and simmer for 15 minutes, until you get a nice gravy
- then add the shrimp/prawns, cover and simmer for another 5-10 minutes
- near the end add coconut

ReplyDeleteI love curries, Rebecca, all kinds! Yours looks delish.
ReplyDeleteSoccer is not something that interests me at all. I don't think we've ever had the interest in the U.S. that they do in Europe. Perhaps that is changing.
Now football, that's a different thing! Love it!

Finally, I'm looking forward to checking out your recipes. Sarah
