Coconut, Chilli and Mustard Seed Prawns
- 2 tbsp black mustard seeds
- 1 onion, sliced thinly
- 5 tbsp veg oil
- 250ml coconut milk
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 250g fresh coconut flesh, blitzed or grated
- 350g raw prawns
- Pinch of salt
- 4 fresh green chillies, sliced lengthways and deseeded
- Handful of fresh coriander to finish
- Get out your food processor, and chuck in the mustard seeds along with a splash of water. Blend for a minute, then add another splash of water. Blend for another minute until you have a paste that resembles wholegrain mustard. Set aside.
- Take a pan, and heat the veg oil over a moderate heat. Throw in your onion, followed by the coconut milk, fresh coconut, mustard paste, salt, and turmeric. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add the prawns and chillies, and simmer for another 4 minutes. Toss in the coriander, and serve.
