Let’s make something delicious

  • Step One

    Start by making the masala. In a pestle and mortar or blender, grind up the peppercorns, coriander seeds and cumin seed. Add the turmeric, chilli flakes, tamarind, coconut milk and desiccated coconut. Pulse until mixed, then set aside.

  • Step Two

    In a large, heavy based pan, sweat the onions and ginger for around 7 minutes, or until soft. Add the garlic and cook for another couple of minutes. Next add the tomatoes, cooking for a further 5 minutes, until soft.

  • Step Three

    Turn the heat up a little and pour in the masala and a big pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down to a gentle simmer. After 5 minutes, add the prawns and cook for approximately 8 minutes, turning halfway through, until opaque.

  • Step Four

    Serve piping hot over steaming rice, and garnish with coriander, if you wish.
