I so enjoyed this.
I followed the recipe practically to a T, using the 2 whole green unseeded chillies and my only change for our tastes would be to deseed one of the chillies, just to cut back some of the bite. Certainly not a hot dish as such but would prefer just to tone it down a touch.
I also used 750g of green prawns and I could see that there's enough of the paste to make it an even 1kg. The shells have been put in the freeze to make a stock next week.
Very quick to make, once the paste was made I scraped into a large bowl then added the prawns and stirred to coat them in the paste. Left for about 5 mins while I got the simple salad ready.
Only took a few mins to actually cook. One thing, I would certainly suggest having something sweet served with it. I used some cubed melon but mango or anything like that would also be good. The cold sweetness went perfectly with the flavour of the prawns.
A meal I will definitely make again. :D

I haven't really used this book, I think the chilli scares me a little :P

Me either Maddy but I reckon there would be some pretty good recipes worth giving a shot. :D

Maddy, don't be scared using the chillies. We have been lucky to spend quite a bit of time in India especially in the North where the food isn't hot. There they mainly use green chillies (the long ones) and if you take out the seeds there is even less heat. If you are worried then cut them by half but do have a try you will be quite surprised and these prawns really do look they deserve a try don't they.
