1 Tomato
Handful fresh coriander
1 Tbsp Vegetable oil
1 Tsp Salt
1/2 Tsp Cumin seed
1/2 Tsp Coriander seed
1/2 Tsp Black pepper
Rice:
6 Tbsp Vegetable oil
4 Onions
1 Green chilli
2 Cups of rice
2-3 Tsp Salt
1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
1/4 Tsp Cumin
Stock from this recipe, or use ready made stock or a stock cube
Prawns:
250g (1/2 lb) Shelled Prawns 500g (1lb) before shelling
1 Tbsp Vegetable oil
1/4 Tsp Salt
1/4 Tsp Cumin
1/8 Tsp Black pepper
1 Clove Garlic
Directions:
To make the seafood stock:
1- Deshell and clean your prawns (Search youtube for detailed steps)
2- Pour the oil into a large pot over medium high heat, once heated add the prawn shells and heads
3- Stir fry until bright orange, then roughly chop the onion, and score the tomato, and add them to the pot
4- Add in the Garlic, spices and remaining ingredients, then top with 2L (2 quarts) water
5- Bring to a boil then skim using a ladle, allow to simmer for half an hour
6- Drain using a fine mish sieve, making sure to remove all shells and vegetables
To make the rice:
1- Thoroughly wash the rice until clear and set it aside to drain
2- Dice your onions into a medium dice
3- Add the oil and onions to a pot over medium heat
4- Cook the onions for about 30 minutes, stirring every few minutes until they are a very dark brown
5- Once they are coffee colour, add a few ladles of stock in to deglaze the pot
6- Slice the green chilli and add it in with the salt, pepper and cumin. Allow to boil for about 5-10 minutes
7- Add the washed rice to the pot and bring this to a boil, turn the heat down to medium and cover with a tight fitting lid
8- Check the pot every couple of minutes, and once the water has dropped below the surface of the rice, turn the heat down to low
9- Allow this to steam for 20-25 minutes covered, adding the prawns halfway through (mix them with the other ingredients mentioned above)
10- If the rice is a little wet after this time, allow it to steam on low heat with the lid off for a few more minutes
Serve while hot and enjoy!
