How to Make Prawn Curry Quick And Easy

  1. Shell 500g of green prawns and refrigerate until needed.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté 1 finely chopped onion and 2 cloves of minced garlic until softened (approx. 5 minutes). Add 1 teaspoon of curry powder, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, and 1/4 teaspoon chili powder; stir well to combine.
  3. Pour in 200ml of water and bring to a gentle simmer for 2 minutes.
  4. Add the shelled prawns, ensuring they are evenly coated in the sauce. Stir in 1 chopped tomato and simmer for another 3-5 minutes, or until the prawns are pink and cooked through. Do not overcook!
  5. Serve immediately with hot rice, pappadums, and your favorite accompaniments such as chopped spring onions, tomatoes, capsicums, dried coconut, fresh chili, and cucumber.
  6. Garnish with fresh coriander if desired
