Red coconut prawn curry with varied curled prawns and loosely spooned cauliflower rice
TooGut pickFlexible, practical, genuinely delicious.

Prawns need almost no cooking, so the sauce is reduced first and the seafood goes in at the end. That keeps the smaller prawns springy and the larger ones juicy.

One step at a time

Let’s cook.

Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Char the capsicum

Heat a broad pan hard. Add oil and capsicum, leaving the pieces untouched for 2 minutes so their torn edges blister.

Fry the paste

Lower the heat slightly, add curry paste and cook for 90 seconds until the oil stains red and smells rounded rather than raw.

Reduce the sauce first

Add coconut milk, lime zest and fish sauce. Simmer for 6 to 8 minutes until lightly thickened.

Cook prawns briefly

Add prawns and bok choy. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, removing smaller prawns as soon as they curl and turn opaque.

Finish fresh

Stir-fry cauliflower rice for 5 minutes. Add lime juice and torn basil to the curry, then spoon it loosely over the rice.
