Mauritian prawn curry

Mauritian Prawn Curry

Method

 
1. Preheat the oven to 180C/gas 4.

2. Heat the oil in a casserole dish over a medium heat, add the onions and aubergine and fry for 10 minutes until softened. Add the tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add all of the remaining ingredients except the prawns and lime juice, and bring to the boil, adding a little water if the sauce is too thick. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, put the prawns in a bowl and cover with half the lime juice to marinate.

4. Add the prawns and the remaining lime juice to the casserole, stir well to coat the prawns in the sauce, cover and cook in the oven for 30 minutes. Serve with rice, popadums and condiments.
