Prawn Curry Recipes

Steps:

• Shell and devein prawns.
• Place prawns in a bowl and pour cream over, cover and chill for 1 hour.
• Chop onion.
• Crush garlic and add salt.
• Melt butter in a heavy pan and saute onion and garlic over a low heat until onion is soft but not coloured.
• Add curry power, still over low heat and cook for about 3 minutes to release aroma.
• Sprinkle plain flour and continue cooking for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat and add chicken stock, whisking until smooth.
• Return to a higher heat and cook until it boils and thickens.
• Reduce heat and add prawns with the cream, stirring to mix well together and until prawns are heated through.

Steps:

• Boil water in a saucepan and cook enough rice for 2 people.
• Heat some oil in a frying pan and throw in the beans, cooking for about 2 minutes.
• Add the peppers and mushrooms, fry for another minute and then add the prawn, chicken stock, fish sauce, curry paste and herbs.
• Cook until the beans are tender.
• Add the coconut milk and lime juice, cooking for a further 2 minutes over a medium heat and taking care not to scald the coconut milk.
• Serve over basmati rice, preferrably in a shallow bowl.

Steps:

• Peel, devein, and rinse prawns. Rub with a generous amount of salt.
• Combine coconut, chile peppers, garlic, coriander seeds, and peppercorns in a food processor and process to a paste (masala).
• Heat oil in a saucepan. Add onion and saute until browned, about 5 minutes. Add masala along with turmeric powder and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add water and bring to a boil.
• Add shrimp and okra. Cover and simmer until prawns and okra are cooked, about 5 minutes. Add kokum and turn up the heat to bring to a boil again.
• Turn off heat and let it stand for a few minutes until curry has thickened.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan. Tip in the onion and ginger, then cook for a few mins until softened. Stir in the curry paste, then cook for 1 min more. Pour over the chopped tomatoes and coconut cream. Bring to the boil, then leave to simmer for 5 mins, adding a little boiling water if the mixture gets too thick.
• Tip in the prawns, then cook for 5-10 mins more, depending on how large they are. Serve alongside some plain rice and sprinkle with a little chopped coriander, if you like.
