  • 2 teaspoons Coriander Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Garam Masala
  • 200 ml Coconut Milk
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh Coriander Leaves

Directions

Step 1

Start by cleaning the prawns. Remove the shell and de-vein to ensure thorough cleansing. Rinse them under cold water and set aside.

Step 2

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 3

Add the ginger-garlic paste to the onions and sauté for another 2 minutes until the raw aroma disappears.

Step 4

Stir in the pureed tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes until the oil starts to separate from the mixture.

Step 5

Mix in the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, and salt. Cook the spices with the onion-tomato mixture for another 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Add the cleaned prawns to the pan and stir well to coat them with the spice mixture.

Step 7

Pour in the coconut milk and bring the curry to a gentle simmer. Allow it to cook for about 10 minutes, or until the prawns are fully cooked and tender.

Step 8

Sprinkle garam masala over the curry, stir gently, and cook for another 2 minutes.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves before serving.

Step 10

Serve the prawn curry hot with steamed rice or naan.
