Indian prawn/ shrimp curry

I love Indian food, but I found that Indian dishes do not always have coconut milk in it. So I wonder how to make them....

Got a recipe, it is good, rich flavor :)




Ingredients
3tbsp vegetable oil
1 cinnamon stick
4 cloves

2 onions, diced
2 green chillies, diced

2tbsp ginger garlic paste*

1.5tsp tumeric powder
1tsp red chili powder
1tsp coriander powder
1tsp garam masala

4 tomatoes, diced
1tbsp cumin powder
1tbsp tomato paste
1cup water

600g prawn/ shrimp
2 pinch of salt

200ml warm water

*1. Can be replaced by 1tbsp fresh ginger and 1tbsp fresh garlic
2. If you want to make ginger garlic paste =
Blend 1tbsp fresh ginger and 1tbsp fresh garlic
(if young ginger:keep skin, if old ginger:remove skin)

Instructions
Medium heat, put oil, cinnamon sticks, cloves
Add onions and chillies till golden color

Add ginger and garlic, stir well

Low heat, add tumeric, red chili, coriander & garam masala
Add tomatoes, cumin & tomato paste
Add 1cup water, keep stirring until the water is well absorbed into the mixture
cover by a lid, sim 10-15mins, you can see the oil is floating on the top after 10-15mins

Turn back to high heat, add prawns, stir well
Add salt

Add water and let it cook for 10mins

Enjoy!
