Prawns and Spinach/Kale

Total Cook Time

20 mins

Ingredients

  • 100g prawns
  • 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
  • salt
  • olive oil
  • 1-2 red chillies
  • 1/2 onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic finely chopped
  • fresh ginger 1 x 2cm piece, finely chopped or grated
  • 3-4 cherry tomatoes halve
  • 1/2 tsp chilli powder
  • spinach or kale 150g, finely sliced (it should be like cabbage sliced for coleslaw)

Method

  1. Marinate the prawns in a bowl with half of the tumeric and salt for 10 minutes.
  2. Fry prawns over a high heat to seal them (until they curl up). The prawns should only briefly touch the pan. They will be cooked again.
  3. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and chillies and the remaining turmeric and salt. Fry over a medium-high heat for a few minutes.
  4. Add the tomatoes and continue to cook on high. Return the prawns to the pan together with the chilli powder and spinach/kale.
  5. Taste for seasoning. The dish should be relatively dry.
  6. Serve with rice.

Notes

ONLY BUY PRESHELLED PRAWNS!!!! Shelled ones are too time demanding.
