Servings 4 portions

Ingredients

400 g king prawns
1 red pepper
1 yellow pepper
½ leek
2 tsp curry powder
1 tsp paprika
1 dash dash cayenne
2 tbsp butter
4 cloves garlic finely chopped or minced
2 tbsp tomato puree
1 tsp soy sauce
20 cl cream
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

De-vein and shell the prawns.
Slice leek and peppers.
Melt the butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Once it's sizzling sautee the garlig for 30 seconds before adding the prawns, season with the curry and cayenne and paprika and cook until done. This is very quick, so don't take your eyes off them.
Remove the prawns from the pan and set aside.
Fry the leek and peppers until tender. Add tomato puree and cream. You may want to add a bit more seasoning according to taste.
Let simmer for five minutes then turn the heat off and add the cooked prawns.

Notes

The curry powder you buy in Sweden is slightly sweeter than those I have bought in other parts of the world. If you want that authentic Swedish taste, add a tsp of sugar.

Serve with rice.
