Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine prawns, lime juice, chili powder, garlic, and ginger. Season to taste with salt and pepper and allow to marinate for 15-20 minutes.
  • While the prawns are marinating, melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the prawns and cook, stirring occasionally, just until the prawns begin to turn opaque and soften up slightly, 4-5 minutes. Watch carefully as prawns can overcook very quickly. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add in the cumin seeds, turmeric, and garam masala. Cook until the spices become fragrant, approximately 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the onions to the spice mixture and cook until the onions develop a bit of color, 4-5 minutes.
  • Pour in the crushed tomatoes and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly, 4-5 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low. Add in the yogurt and heavy cream. Cook gently for 4-5 minutes, then add in the prawns and any accumulated juices and continue cooking just until the prawns are heated through.
  • Serve over cooked basmati rice and garnish with fresh cilantro. Enjoy!
