Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oil in a medium saucepan. Tip in the onion and ginger, then cook for a few mins until softened. Stir in the curry paste, then cook for 1 min more. Pour over the chopped tomatoes and coconut cream. Bring to the boil, then leave to simmer for 5 mins, adding a little boiling water if the mixture gets too thick.

  • step 2

    Tip in the prawns, then cook for 5-10 mins more, depending on how large they are. Serve alongside some plain rice and sprinkle with a little chopped coriander, if you like.

Leave it to rest during the night and next day the flavor will be awesome.

As mentioned, not an authentic Thai curry at all BUT it is still pretty yummy and the kids will eat it so it works for us. I love a Thai red curry but it’s too spicy for the kids so this is a happy medium. It should probably be called a light Thai inspired curry though.

Not a Thai red curry. Tomatoes absolutely ruined and overpowered it. (Not sure why so many negative comments still result in a 4* rating.) This was dreadful when the recipe was followed. Would advise leaving out the tomatoes, including coconut milk, using more paste and reducing. Peppers and chunky…
