I will admit this looks is a little fiddly but cooking a curry form scratch is extremely satisfying and mind-bendingly good to eat.<\/span> \u00a0<\/span>Some steps like grinding spices can be simplified and i have included these shortcuts in brackets.<\/span> P<\/span>our yourself a drink and put some music on – you will enjoy making this!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Its best to prep all your ingredients first before cooking anything:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Grate your ginger, turmeric and garlic into a paste (a shortcut here would be to put onions, garlic, turmeric ginger and chilli in a blender and whizz to a paste) <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Grind your spice mix into a powder and remove any cardamon husks. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Now you are ready to cook:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. In a sauce pan or wok, add a few glugs of veg oil. Add curry leaves, a few fennel seeds and a star anise to flavour the oil – careful the curry leaves will spit! (skip this step as a shortcut)<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Add onions to the oil and gently fry until they begin to soften<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Then add your garlic, ginger, turmeric paste. Mix well with the onions and continue to simmer.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Then add your spice mix (or 2 tsps of curry powder for shortcut), tomato puree and tamarind puree.\u00a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    5. Mix well leave the whole lot to simmer for 5 mins or so<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    6. Add a bit of water if it’s beginning to dry out, add your shrimps and mix through<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    7. This is a great curry as it is now but if you like a coconut element add a tin of coconut milk.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    8. Simmer until prawns are done – 5 mins max (OR add frozen prawns and cook for longer)<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    9. \u00a0Serve with basmati rice and garnish with sliced red chilli, crispy onions and coriander leaves<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
