HOW TO MAKE IT

  • 1

    Trim prawn heads, remove sac and split prawns down the back to remove vein (but keep shells on). Season prawns with salt and pepper, and toss lightly to coat with cornflour. Heat oil in a frying pan and cook prawns in batches over medium-high heat until cooked through (about 5 minutes per side). Transfer prawns to a plate and set aside.

    Meanwhile, heat butter in a wok/pan over medium heat and saute garlic and spring onion until just beginning to brown. Add bird’s eye chillies and curry leaves, and stir-fry for 30 seconds before adding evaporated milk, salt and sugar. Bring to the boil and add PREGO® Carbonara Mushroom Pasta Sauce and water.
