4 tbsp Oil
240 g King Prawns
250 ml Water
1 Small Onion
1 Green Chilli
2 Medium Garlic Cloves
1 Thumb-Size Ginger
2 Large Tomatoes
Handful Fresh Coriander

Spices

1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Chilli Powder
½ tsp Turmeric
½ tsp Grounded Fenugreek Or Fenugreek Leaves
1 tsp Garam Masala

Instructions

On a moderate heat add oil to a balti bowl or pan. Fry the diced onions and chillies for 2 to 3 minutes or until softened and starting to brown.
Add diced garlic and ginger and fry for 30 seconds stirring frequently.
Add the chopped tomatoes and leave to simmer for 5 minutes or until broken down. Stir occasionally to prevent the onions from sticking to the pan.
Then add salt, chilli powder, turmeric, grounded fenugreek and garam masala. Continue to stir for a further 30 seconds.
Add water and leave the curry to simmer until it has thickened. Stir the curry occasionally. This should take roughly 5 to 10 minutes.
Add the king prawns and leave to simmer for 3 to 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking to the pan.
Sprinkle with fresh coriander, serve and enjoy!
