I seriously could write a cookbook on all the different ways I make curry! This technique is the best if I’m just not in the mood to wash the blender for a curry paste (which, let’s be honest, is most of the time!) and are not in the mood to do loads of dishes. This saucy dish is so creamy, zesty, absolutely bursting with flavour and spice. Bonus- it takes only 15-20 minutes to make too! Bonus #2 - You could make this vegan by omitting the prawn step here and roasting chickpeas with the aubergine/eggplant. Scrumptious!

I use coconut yoghurt here (I buy coconut collab plain yoghurt) but you can use plain, Greek, Icelandic or even goat yoghurt for the same effect. Its an incredible flexible recipe as well- you can omit the cucumber, lemon or olive oil, and add honey for sweetness, lemon zest for a delicate flavour, or chili for spice so this matches with any recipe. I even dip salty tortilla chips in this as the perfect mini snack!

Cashews softened in 15-20 minutes and good to go! And the other plus? The only special equipment you need is a high powered blender or a food processor!
