Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped red onion and garlic and stir-fry for 4–5 minutes until golden.
-
Step 2.
Add the halved cherry tomatoes, tomato passata, honey, ground cumin, paprika, chilli powder, black pepper, and a good pinch of salt to the cooked onion. Pour in the lemon juice and vegetable stock. Mix everything together well, then bring to the boil. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to allow the sauce to develop flavor.
-
Step 3.
After the sauce has simmered, turn the heat up to medium. Add the raw peeled king prawns and the roughly chopped coriander (including stalks). Cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the prawns are cooked through and turn pink.
-
Step 4.
While the prawns cook, cook the vermicelli rice noodles in boiling water for 2–3 minutes until soft, or according to package directions. Drain and return them to the pan. Add 2 tbsp olive oil, the chopped coriander leaves, ½ tsp ground cumin, ¼ tsp chilli powder, a good pinch of salt and pepper, and squeeze in the juice from ½ lemon. Mix everything together well so the spices and dressing coat the noodles. Serve the noodles with the cooked prawn and herb brewat.
