This was my first recipe, and I knew it was good when my entire family loved it, especially mum! It's inspired by the Bengali cooking I grew up with and is best served with rice or naan.

Ingredients

Serves: 4
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon chilli powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garam masala
  • salt to taste
  • 2 green chillies, seeded and chopped (or to taste)
  • 200g raw peeled and deveined prawns
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 300g sliced vegetables of your choice – carrots, beans, capsicums
  • handful fresh coriander, finely chopped
  • 2 cherry tomatoes, chopped - to serve

Preparation method

Prep: 5 minutes |Cook: 25 minutes
1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan on medium high heat. Add the onion, turmeric, chilli powder, garam masala, salt and green chillies and stir till onions turn crispy brown, about 3 minutes.
 
2. Add the prawns to the frying pan, stirring well, and cook for another 5 minutes. Add the water and stir to release any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the vegetables and mix well, then cook covered for 3 minutes. Add coriander and cook covered for a further 1 to 2 minutes, until vegetables are tender and prawns are opaque.
 
3. Serve on a platter with the chopped cherry tomatoes on top for garnish. Best eaten with boiled rice or naan.
