Spicy Prawns

I’m not really sure what to call this but it is one of those satisfying recipes that is easy to cook and tastes great. Enjoy it with a little basmati rice or similar.

Ingredients (serves 4 , or 2 greedy ones!):

• One red onion, chopped
• One onion , chopped
• Half of one red capsicum pepper, chopped
• Half of one green capsicum pepper, chopped
• One tin of chopped tomatoes 440gms
• Approx 10 cherry tomatoes – halved
• One birdseye red chilli chopped
• One red chilli (milder) sliced thinly
• 4 cloves of garlic, chopped
• One Tsp of sugar (if required – ie if tomatoes are not sweet)
• 5 tbsp of light olive oil
• Fresh black pepper
• Sea Salt
• 2 cups of peeled prawns – fresh or frozen

Fry the onions and garlic until soft (over a medium heat). Add the peppers and chilli and continue over a medium heat. After about 5 minutes, add the tinned tomatoes, cover and leave on a low heat for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally) Remove cover and add remaining ingredients and season. The salt makes a big difference to the flavour of this dish. Cook until the prawns are cooked through and the cherry tomatoes are just soft. Serve in a bowl with plain rice, feet up and a big glass of wine – perfect!
