Step 1: Combine the ginger, onions, garlic, red pepper, coriander, thyme, parsley and celery. Tip everything into a food processor or liquidiser and add about 25ml vinegar and blend until smooth. You could also use a mortar and pestle. Mix about 2-3 rounded tablespoons of this ‘green seasoning’ mixture with the prawns.
Step 2: Blend the curry powder with about 125ml water – or enough to make a slack paste
Step 3: Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan set over a medium heat and fry the curry paste, stirring all the time, for 1 minute – until fragrant.
Step 4: Tip the prawns into the pan and fry for about 3-4 minutes, until they turn a delicate shade of pink around the edges
Step 5: Pour over enough water to moisten the prawns and make a thickish curry sauce. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes until tender.
Step 6: Stir in the chopped coriander, spring onion (or celery), and the chopped chilli. Serve with steamed rice, or Caribbean roti.
