Asian

Ingredients:
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1 green chilli, deseeded and sliced

1 tbsp tomato purée
400ml tinned coconut milk

Method:
Use a large frying pan to heat the oil.
Cook the onion and garlic with half of the chili for around 5 minutes.
The onions should become soft. Add the curry paste and cook for 1 minute more.
Add the tomato purée and coconut milk.
Simmer on a medium heat for 15 minutes, which will reduce the liquid a little, then add the prawns.
