Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Prawns
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 large, finely chopped Onion
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece, minced Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 400 milliliters Coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh cilantro
- 1 sliced, optional Green chili
Instructions
Begin by cleaning the prawns under running water and remove the shells if necessary. Pat them dry using a kitchen towel.
Heat coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it turns golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan, stirring continuously for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Mix in the red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, and cumin powder. Stir well and cook the spices for another minute.
Pour in the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally.
Add the prawns to the pan, ensuring they are submerged in the curry sauce. Let them cook in the sauce for about 5-7 minutes or until they are pink and opaque.
Season the curry with salt and lime juice, adjusting to taste. Simmer everything together for an additional 2 minutes.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and sliced green chili, if using. Serve the prawn curry hot as a low-carb dish that can be enjoyed alone, or with a side of cauliflower rice.
