Preparation:

Put prawns in a bowl and add salt and vinegar. Mix well and set aside for 30 minutes. Heat oil over a medium heat and fry onions until they are a light golden colour. Stir frequently, this will take 8-10 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and fry for 1 minute. Add the coriander, cumin, turmeric, chilli powder, cloves and cinnamon. Stir fry for 1 minute when the spices will release their flavour. Add prawns, sieved tomatoes or passata and creamed coconut. Bring to a slow simmer and stir until coconut is dissolved. Blend coconut milk powder with hot water and add to prawns. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes. If you are using tiger prawns allow 8-9 minutes. Add fresh, whole chillies, salt and chopped coriander. Simmer for 2-3 minutes and remove from the heat. Serve with plain boiled rice and batata sukkhe or broccoli upkari.
