This is a common traditional Goan favourite dish. Rice curry is the staple food eaten nearly every afternoon in every Goan household.
Ingredients:
10-12 shelled and de-veined prawns
6-8 dried Kashmiri red chillies
1 onions, thinly sliced
1/4 inch ginger
4-5 cloves of garlic
200 ml coconut milk
1 tbsp coriander seeds
1 tsp cumin seeds
4-6 peppercorns
1 tsp turmeric powder
1 tbsp tamarind pulp
6-8 Kokum rinds
1 green chilli, slit
Salt for seasoning
Method:
1. Wash the prawns and season with salt and mix with onions and slit green chilli.
2. In a blender, grind the rest of the ingredients (except the kokum), add little water if required. Grind until a smooth but thick consistency.
3. Pour this ground masala into a saucepan, once it starts to boil add the prawns and onion/chilli mix. Add the kokum and simmer on slow fire. Cook until the prawns are tender and the curry has reduced slightly and is thickened.
4. Serve with boiled rice, fried fish/vegetables and pickle.
Tips:
You can use raw mango slices instead of tamarind pulp/ kokum. Slice of fish can be used instead of prawns.
Also instead of coconut milk you can use freshly grated coconut.
