THAI GREEN PRAWN CURRY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a wok or large saucepan. Add the shallot and garlic, and stir-fry for 1-2 mins. Add the curry paste, coconut cream and 50ml water, and bubble for 2 mins.
• Add the sugar snap peas and cook for 1-2 mins until just beginning to soften. Add the prawns, soy sauce and lemon juice and heat through. Stir in the coriander and serve straight away with noodles.

THAI PRAWN CURRY

Steps:

• Boil water in a saucepan and cook enough rice for 2 people.
• Heat some oil in a frying pan and throw in the beans, cooking for about 2 minutes.
• Add the peppers and mushrooms, fry for another minute and then add the prawn, chicken stock, fish sauce, curry paste and herbs.
• Cook until the beans are tender.
• Add the coconut milk and lime juice, cooking for a further 2 minutes over a medium heat and taking care not to scald the coconut milk.
• Serve over basmati rice, preferrably in a shallow bowl.

THAI PRAWN, POTATO & VEGETABLE CURRY

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large frying pan or wok. Fry the curry paste and lemongrass for 1 min, until fragrant. Tip in peppers and new potatoes, then stir them to coat in the paste. Cook for 1-2 mins. Pour in coconut milk, stock and lime leaves, then bring to the boil. Simmer and cook for 15 mins, until potatoes are just tender.
• Add remaining ingredients, but if you're freezing don't add spinach or coriander yet, and cook until the prawns turn pink, about 4 mins. Serve, with some extra lime wedges, if you like, or cool before freezing in containers.

PRAWN RED THAI CURRY

Steps:

• Combine coconut milk, curry paste, fish sauce and chilli in a wok. Slowly bring the boil over medium low heat, stirring occasionally.
• Reduce heat to low; add prawns. Cook, uncovered, stirring, about 10 minutes or until prawns are cooked.
• Serve with hot jasmine rice.

THAI PRAWN & SQUASH CURRY

Steps:

• Heat the oil a large frying pan or wok. Tip in the coconut and cook for 3 mins or until starting to toast, then add the curry paste and fry, stirring constantly, until fragrant and sizzling. Add 100ml water and bring to the boil - the water will evaporate and the paste will split. Add the sugar and reduce the heat (the colour will darken).
• With the mixture at a simmer, add the fish sauce, lime leaves, lemongrass and squash. Cook for 1 min, stirring to coat the squash in the paste, then add the coconut milk and 200ml more water and bring back to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 mins until the squash is cooked.
• Turn up the heat again, drop in the prawns and stir well. As soon as the pan returns to the boil, reduce to a low heat and cook for a few mins until the prawns are pink and cooked through. The curry should now be sweet and creamy. To serve, top with the coriander leaves and beansprouts.

PRAWN CURRY IN A HURRY

Steps:

• Drizzle some oil from the curry paste jar into a wok or large frying pan, gently heat, then add the onion. Sizzle over a low heat for 4 mins until the onion softens, then stir in the paste and cook for a few mins longer. Stir in the prawns and tomatoes, then bring to a simmer. If using raw prawns, simmer until they have changed colour and are cooked through. Season, if you like, then add the coriander just before serving with boiled rice and naan bread.
