Ingredients

  1. 300 g prawns, peeled and deveined
  2. 2 garlic cloves, minced
  3. 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
  4. 1 tsp ground turmeric
  5. 1 tsp chili powder
  6. 1 tsp ground coriander
  7. 2 tsp vegetable oil (plus extra for cooking)
  8. Salt and pepper, to taste
  9. 1 tbsp vegetable oil (for cooking)
  10. 1 small onion, finely chopped
  11. 1 tomato, chopped
  12. 100 ml coconut milk or cream (optional, for a richer curry)
  13. Fresh coriander leaves, chopped (for garnish)
  14. Cooked basmati rice or naan, to serve

Method

  1. Place prawns in a bowl with garlic, ginger, spices, 2 teaspoons oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir well to coat the prawns, cover, and marinate in the fridge for 15 minutes.
  2. While prawns are marinating, cook the rice according to the packet instructions. Once done, cover and keep warm.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the prawns and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they turn lightly golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
  4. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil to the pan and reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the chopped tomato, then cover and simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes until the tomato is soft.
  5. Return the prawns to the pan, add the yoghurt and coriander, and stir gently to warm through for 1 minute. Adjust seasoning to taste, then serve with the warm rice.

Chef's Tip

Indian-style prawn curry is all about layering aromatic spices with rich, comforting flavour while keeping the prawns tender and juicy. Garlic, ginger, turmeric, coriander, and chilli create a warm, fragrant base that pairs beautifully with the natural sweetness of the seafood. Briefly cooking the prawns separately helps prevent overcooking, while the tomato and creamy sauce bring balance, depth, and richness to every bite.
