coconut milk
🥗Healthier: light coconut milk
💰Cheaper: milk + coconut extract
Light coconut milk reduces calories while maintaining flavor.
prawns
🥗Healthier: chicken
💰Cheaper: tofu
Chicken is a leaner protein option, while tofu is budget-friendly.
Marinate the prawns with pepper powder, chili flakes, turmeric powder, ginger garlic paste, and salt for 10 to 20 minutes.
Heat coconut oil in a pan and fry the prawns until they turn slightly pink, cooking on both sides.
Add sliced ginger, garlic, green chili, shallots, and curry leaves to the pan and sauté until the shallots change color.
Pour in 2 to 3 tablespoons of coconut milk and add coconut oil with pepper powder, sautéing for 2 to 3 minutes until the milk evaporates.
Add 2 more tablespoons of thick coconut milk and sauté again for 2 to 3 minutes until it evaporates.
Repeat adding 2 to 3 tablespoons of thick coconut milk and sauté with curry leaves.
Adjust the consistency by adding more coconut milk if desired.
Garnish with roasted coconut flakes before serving.
