  1. This is delicious! I had fat tiger prawns and I peeled them but left the heads on. I used green Thai curry (had no red) and Cape Malay masala instead of curry powder (much the same thing!) Once I had everything collected around me, the recipe was quick to make. The taste is great, and the sugar is a stroke of genius because it adds something ... I don't know what! Next time I'll probably use cornflour to thicken the sauce a little. After I took the photographs, I added a peeled, chopped and roasted yellow pepper as well -- looked very pretty! (I had roasted 4 coloured peppers earlier). Don't have green onions; used Italian parsley. Served with lemon slices, brown basmati rice, and a large salad. (And wine!!) Thanks for a keeper!
