Ingredients

• 100 grams prawns
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 1 tsp chopped garlic
• Salt to taste
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 tomato, chopped
• 1 cup coriander leaves or parsley
• 1 tsp chopped ginger
• 1 tsp turmeric powder (haldi)
• 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions

1. In a bowl, combine peeled prawns with 1 tablespoon of oil, minced garlic, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper. Toss to coat and let marinate while preparing the vegetables.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper; cook for about 3 minutes.
3. Add 2 coarsely chopped garlic cloves and cook for an additional minute. Then, stir in the canned diced tomatoes and chopped herbs (basil and cilantro/parsley), cooking for about 2 minutes. Transfer this mixture to a blender and set aside.

5. In the skillet, add coconut milk, broth, lime juice, and ground ginger. Blend the cooked vegetable mixture and return it to the skillet; bring everything to a boil.
6. Add the cooked shrimp back into the skillet and toss to coat. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and chopped cilantro/parsley before serving.
