Let's Cook

  1. Step 1.

    Heat 3½ tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pan over high heat. Add the whole green chillies (pierced with a knife) and 1 tablespoon panch phoron, and fry for 10 seconds, stirring constantly.

    Reduce the heat to low. Add the broccoli florets and sliced stalk, canned chopped tomatoes, ¼ teaspoon chilli powder, ½ teaspoon ground turmeric, and 250ml water. Stir to combine, then bring to a simmer. Cook for 10–12 minutes, until the broccoli is tender.

    While the broccoli simmers, in a bowl combine the remaining 1½ tablespoons oil, ½ teaspoon turmeric, and the cooked king prawns. Toss to coat.

  4. Step 4.

    Place a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the prawn mixture and cook, stirring continuously, for 2 minutes.

    Tip the cooked prawns into the curry along with 1 heaped tablespoon English mustard, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon sugar. Stir to combine, then cook for another 3 minutes.

    Remove the curry from the heat. Scatter over the roughly chopped fresh coriander and drizzle with the juice of ½ lemon. Serve hot with rice and flatbreads.
