About

People tend to think making curry from scratch can be laborious and time-consuming… not this one! If you have prawns in the freezer and a tin of coconut milk in the cupboard, you can knock this up in less time than it will take you to peruse a takeaway menu.

Method

Heat a pan and add the oil. Add the garlic, ginger, chilli, curry leaves, and all the ground spices. Stir for a minute or two before adding the coconut milk and sugar. The sauce can be refrigerated at this point for later use if needed.

Bring the sauce to a simmer, then add the green beans. Simmer for 5 minutes, then add the prawns, fresh mango and lime juice. Simmer for another 5 minut
