Prawn Curry Parcel
Serve: 1
Ingredients:
170 grams Raw king prawn
1 tbs Rapeseed oil
1 tbs Thai red curry paste
70ml Thai coconut milk or coconut cream
1/2 tbs Cream cheese
1 tsp Sugar
1 tsp Fish sauce
1 tsp Oyster sauce
10 Basil leaves
1 sheet Filo pastry
1 Spring onion – trimmed and using only the green string
-Preheat the oven to 200 Celsius.
-Gently fry the Thai red curry paste in the rapeseed oil approx 5 minutes.
-Add the coconut milk, sugar, basil leaves, fish sauce and oyster sauce into the same pan and simmer for approx 10 minutes.
-Add the cream cheese and prawns into the same pan, mix well and simmer for a further 5 minutes.
-Separate the cooked king prawns from the curry sauce. Leave the curry sauce to one side.
-Lay the filo sheet on a baking tray. Transfer the cooked king prawns onto the filo sheet. Then make the parcel and tie it with the spring onion (or anything that can do the trick, white cotton, a sliced carrot… as you can see I used a wooden peg!).
-Put the parcel in the oven for approx 7-9 minutes.
– Serve this Prawn Curry Parcel on a bed of salad and drizzle with the curry sauce on top. Enjoy.
Tip:
-Keep a close eye on the baking of the parcels as the filo pastry is easily burnt.
-Lightly brush the pastry with melted butter before and perhaps after baking to add extra magic.
