Glen Fuels April Seafood Recipe

Ian, from our Rosslare depot, is back with his monthly seafood recipe.

To help you recover from a weekend of chocolate and roast dinners, Ian has chosen a light and fragrant Thai curry for Easter.

Glen Fuels Thai Prawn Curry Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp sunflower oil
• 1 shallot, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped or minced
• 1 stick of lemon grass (Tesco/Dunnes), optional
• 1-2 tbsp Thai green curry paste (or to your own preference)
• 125ml coconut milk (full fat or reduced fat)
• 75g sugar snap peas, thickly sliced diagonally
• 85g cooked prawns, peeled
• 1 tsp soy sauce (or gluten-free tamari sauce)
• 1 tsp lime juice
• small handful coriander, chopped, to serve (optional)
• handful of thingly sliced scallions, to serve (optional)
• noodles or basmati rice, to serve

Thai Prawn Curry Method:

• Heat the oil in a wok or large saucepan. Add the shallot and stir-fry for 1-2 mins of low to medium heat (do not burn).
• Add curry paste, lemon grass and garlic at low heat for max. 1 mins to release flavours (do not burn)
• Add coconut cream and 50ml water and simmer for 2 mins.
• Add sugar snap peas and cook for 1-2 mins until just beginning to soften.
• Add prawns, soy sauce and lime juice and heat through (you're just warming up the prawns which won't take long).
• Stir in the coriander and/or scallions and serve straight away with noodles/rice.

Rice Cooking Method (serves 2)

• Place one cup of rice and 1.5 cups water (tea cup size) into a pot
• Bring to boil then reduce to simmer
• Simmer until water absorbes (this will be quick so keep an eye)
• Turn off heat, place a lid on the pot, let the rice steam while you cook the Thai curry
• Fluff with a fork and serve
