Malabar Spinach and Prawns

Ingredients

  • Malabar spinach (500 g)
  • Green chilies (2–3)
  • Onion (1)
  • Turmeric powder (1/2 teaspoon)
  • Chili powder (1/2 teaspoon)
  • Prawns (20–25)
  • Salt (to taste)

Method

  1. First, wash the malabar spinach well and cut it as needed. You can halve any large leaves down the middle. Dust the prawns with a pinch of turmeric and shallow-fry them lightly in oil. Heat oil in a pot and add chopped onion. Then add turmeric powder, chili powder, and salt. Add the malabar spinach with a little water and cover. The greens will wilt and shrink quickly. Add the fried prawns and green chilies, stir for 2–3 minutes, and serve.
