Prawn & Orange Curry With Basmati Rice

This recipe for Prawn & Orange Curry With Basmati Rice is from Nadiya Hussain, who is one of my favorite chefs. She won the sixth series of BBC's The Great British Bake Off in 2015. She has a show on Netflix called Nadiya’s Time to Eat. Everything she makes has an interesting and brilliant twist. The prawn curry with orange zest and juice has wonderful flavor and it's quick to make.
- Prep: 10 mins
- Cook: 20 mins
- Yields: 2 - 3 Servings
Directions
1Put the olive oil in a pan and place on a medium heat. Add the crushed garlic and cook for a minute.
2Add the chopped onion and green chili and cook for a further 3 minutes, allowing the onions to soften.
3Stir in the turmeric, salt, cumin and paprika. The dish will be very dry now because of the spices, so add the water. Then add the orange zest and juice, stir again, and allow the whole thing to cook gently for about 12–15 minutes.
4While the sauce is simmering, let’s move on to the rice. Place the rice in a medium pan so the grains have room to move while boiling. Add the water and bring to the boil over a high heat, stirring after 5 minutes. Let it boil for another 5 minutes and then stir again. The water should have almost entirely evaporated.
5Put the pan on the lowest setting on the stove, cover and leave to steam for 5 minutes.
6The curry sauce should now have reduced and thickened. Check the seasoning, then go ahead and add the prawns. Cook for as little as 3 - 4 minutes or just until they have gone pink.
7Take off the heat and stir in the coriander. Serve the curry with the hot rice.

This sounds fabulous. I don’t think I’ve ever had a fruit-forward curry (apart from coconut). I’m going to try this ASAP.
