Subtly spiced with rich and flavorful sauce, this recipe is your best friend when it comes to making delicious weeknight meal in minutes.
Let’s Make Indian Prawn CurryTo make this prawn dish, start with peeling the prawns. You can leave the tails intact if you like. I chose to peel the prawns completely to eliminate the messy process of peeling them later.The base of the curry is super simple. First, you make the delicious sauce and then cook the prawns in it alongside coconut milk. It’s a simple combination of sautéed onions, spices and tomatoes.To make the sauce, heat up a little oil in a pan, sauté some onions alongside ginger, garlic and green chilies, and then fry the spices. The spices include ground cumin, ground coriander, red chili powder and garam masala. The tomato paste adds a rich tangy flavor to this Indian prawn curry that really complements with the flavor of the prawns.Now the peeled prawns go in along with water and enough salt. Let this cook, covered, for about 5-10 minutes depending on the size of the prawns. Finally, pour in coconut milk and simmer for another 2 minutes.Add a sprinkle of coriander leaves if you like and spoon it over rice. Yum!
