(Serves 3-4)
For this recipe I like using onion juice instead of paste. This gives the dish a very smooth texture. Be very careful when cooking prawns. Shelled prawns from a C shape when cooked and O shape when overcooked. You don’t want to overcook the prawns for this recipe. If required prepare the gravy first and add prawns to the gravy just three to four minutes before turning off heat. Some people like to fry prawns before adding them to the gravy, but I like to cook prawns in the gravy itself.
