Cooking Instructions
Instructions for 2 people (double for 4)
1
Boil a kettle
Crush the cardamom pods open by squashing them with the side of a knife
Heat a pot with a lid, with a large knob of butter over a medium heat
Once hot, add the crushedcardamom pods and cook for 1 min or until fragrant
2
Add the basmati rice and a pinch of salt to the pot and cook for a further 1 min, then add 300ml [600ml]cold water and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 10-15 min or until all the waterhas been absorbed and the rice is cooked
Once cooked, remove from the heat and keep covered until serving – this is your cardamom rice
3
While the rice is cooking, peel and finely dice the brown onion[s]
Peel (scrape the skin off with a teaspoon) and finely chop (or grate) the ginger
Peel and finely chop (or grate) the garlic
4
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a large knob of butter over a medium heat
Once hot, add the diced onion and a generous pinch of salt and cook for 3-5 min or until soft
Once soft, add the chopped ginger, chopped garlic and curry powder and cook for a further 1 min
5
Meanwhile, chop the coriander finely, including the stalks
Remove the coconut cream from the sachet[s] and chop it roughly
Dissolve the chopped coconut cream in 250ml [500ml]boiled water – this is your coconut stock
6
Add the coconut stock to the pan and cook for 2-3 min or until a thick sauce remains
7
Once the sauce has thickened, add the king prawns and cook for a further 2-3 min or until the prawns are fully cooked
Season generously with both salt and pepper –this is your king prawn korma
