Thai Green Curry Prawns

We had this for dinner tonight. It was DELICIOUS! We like spicy food so we have ours quite hot. For a milder version you could use half the curry paste & omit the chilli ;) This served 4 for only 5pp per serve. You could add more prawns for only a few extra PP if you wanted to.


4 Tbsp green curry paste
10 individual Prawn, king, raw
1 clove fresh garlic
1 fresh red chilli
1 medium brown onion
1 medium carrot
1 medium red capsicum
1 cup of brocolli
1 cup reduced-fat coconut milk
2 cup boiled basmati rice
1/4 cup fresh coriander
1/8 cup fresh basil

Put your rice on first as the sauce doesn't take long to prepare! Shell & devein the prawns then add 1 tbsp of the curry paste & mix through to marinate. Next prepare all of your vegies. Heat your pan & add the garlic, chilli & onion & cook until soft, add the remainder of the curry paste & fry off for a few minutes. Add 1 cup of water & bring to the simmer. Add your prawns, capsicum & brocolli & stir until prawns are cooked. Add the coconut milk, corriander & basil & simmer for a minute to let the flavours develop. Serve with steamed rice.

DF was most impressed & thought it tasted as good as the one the local Thai place makes.
