prawns

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: chicken

Tofu provides a plant-based protein option, while chicken is often more affordable.

basmati rice

🥗Healthier: brown rice

💰Cheaper: regular long-grain rice

Brown rice is a whole grain option, while regular rice is usually less expensive.

coriander leaves

🥗Healthier: parsley

💰Cheaper: dried coriander

Parsley is a fresh alternative, while dried coriander is more economical.

mint leaves

🥗Healthier: basil

💰Cheaper: dried mint

Basil offers a similar flavor profile, and dried mint is cost-effective.

Rinse basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear and soak for 30 minutes.

Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering.

Add cumin seeds, bay leaves, cloves, and cardamom; sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Stir in sliced onions and cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Add ginger, garlic, and green chilies; sauté for another 2-3 minutes.

Incorporate chopped tomatoes and cook until soft, about 4-5 minutes.

Mix in turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt; stir well.

Add prawns and cook until they turn pink, about 3-4 minutes.

Add soaked rice and gently mix to combine with the prawn mixture.

Pour in water (typically 1.5 times the volume of rice) and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is cooked and water is absorbed, about 15-20 minutes.

Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

Garnish with chopped coriander and mint leaves before serving.
