Prawn & coconut curry
main courses | serves 3
A little goes a long way here. Using a bit of coconut cream, rather than a lot of coconut milk, gives you the creamy taste, without as much fat.
Method
1. Heat the oil in a pan and sauté the onion, garlic, chilli, ginger, lemongrass and lime leaves (if using) over a medium heat for 4–5 minutes, until soft but not coloured.
2. Add the prawns, vegetables, coconut cream and stock or water to the pan. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 3–5 minutes, or until the prawns are cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
3. Take the pan off the heat and sprinkle in a little fish sauce and some lime juice to taste. Serve on a bed of rice, and garnish with sliced red chilli, coriander and lime wedges.
