How To Make Quick Curried Prawns

If you’re using frozen prawns, defrost them first according to the instructions on the packet, or more quickly by rinsing them in a colander under the cold tap, leaving them to stand for about 15 minutes then rinsing thoroughly again.

1. Step 1:

   Warm some oil in a large pan while you peel and chop the celery, peppers and onion.

2. Step 2:

   Fry the vegetables and spices over a medium heat while you peel and dice the apple then add the apple to the pan with the (defrosted) prawns and a handful of sultanas.

3. Step 3:

   Sift the flour into the pan, stir well and cook for another minute.

4. Step 4:

   Add the stock, white wine, tomato purée, Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice (both according to taste) to the pan, still stirring, and season with salt and pepper.

5. Step 5:

   Cover with a lid and simmer for about 10 minutes until the sauce has thickened and the food is hot.

6. Step 6:

   Adjust the seasoning, stir in the yoghurt and serve with couscous or plain boiled rice.
