Ingredients:

550g large prawns, peeled and deveined
2 tbsp curry powder
1 onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
400ml tin coconut milk
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp turmeric
Salt and freshly-ground black pepper to taste
2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander

Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and fry until the onion has softened (about 5 minutes).

Sprinkle the curry powder and turmeric over the onion and garlic, stir to combine then cook for 1-2 minutes to toast the spices.

Add the red bell pepper and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer.

At this point add the prawns to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the prawns are pink and cooked through.

Season to taste with salt and pepper, turn into a warmed serving bowl, garnish with chopped coriander and bring to the table.
