Thai Prawn Squash Curry Recipes

Steps:

• In your largest pan or wok, stir the curry paste and 100ml water for a few mins until fragrant. Add the fish sauce and cook for 1 min more.
• Stir in the squash, add the coconut milk and stock, then bring to the boil. Add the pineapple, bamboo shoots and lime leaves. Cook for 15 mins or until the squash is soft. Can be frozen at this point. Add the prawns and Thai basil, and simmer for 1 min more. Leave to rest for 5 mins, then taste for seasoning. Serve with lime wedges and green chillies, if you like.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan. Tip in the onion and ginger, then cook for a few mins until softened. Stir in the curry paste, then cook for 1 min more. Pour over the chopped tomatoes and coconut cream. Bring to the boil, then leave to simmer for 5 mins, adding a little boiling water if the mixture gets too thick.
• Tip in the prawns, then cook for 5-10 mins more, depending on how large they are. Serve alongside some plain rice and sprinkle with a little chopped coriander, if you like.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the butternut squash into a non-stick roasting tin and roast for 15-20 mins or until almost soft. Remove and set aside.
• Meanwhile, cook the rice following pack instructions until tender. Drain and cover to keep warm. (Set aside the extra for Tuna, sweetcorn and pea wraps, see 'goes well with', if required.) Heat the oil in a wok or large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 2 mins until soft but not coloured. Add the ginger, garlic, lemongrass, chilli and spices, and cook for 3 mins more.
• Stir through the mango and roasted butternut squash, then add the spinach and pour over the stock and coconut milk. Stir gently to combine, slowly bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer for a few mins until the spinach starts to wilt.
• Add the prawns and stir. Once the prawns are pink through (about 3 mins), remove the lemongrass and discard. Add the tamari, lime juice and coriander, and stir well. Just before serving, check the seasoning, adding more lime juice or tamari if needed. Serve with the rice.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a wok or large saucepan. Add the shallot and garlic, and stir-fry for 1-2 mins. Add the curry paste, coconut cream and 50ml water, and bubble for 2 mins.
• Add the sugar snap peas and cook for 1-2 mins until just beginning to soften. Add the prawns, soy sauce and lemon juice and heat through. Stir in the coriander and serve straight away with noodles.
