Chilli Masala
1. Add all the masala ingredients to a bowl and let them sit for 30 minutes. This allows the spices to soften and absorb the liquid.
2. Transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until you have a smooth, fine paste, you can add more water if needed.
Prawns
1. For 4 jumbo prawns, heat a pan over medium-high heat. Season the prawns with salt and sear them on both sides until nicely coloured.
2. Add 2–3 tbsp of the chilli masala paste, 2 tsp sugar, and a small splash of water.
3. Sauté for approximately 1 minute, allowing the masala to coat the prawns and cook through.
4. Add 2 tbsp butter and finish with chopped cilantro.
