  1. Heat the oil in frying pan, then fry the onions over a medium heat until soft and beginning to brown, about 5 mins. Meanwhile, reserve 8 of the tomato wedges, then whizz the remainder in a food processor with the ginger and garlic.
  2. Add the curry paste to the pan for 30 secs. Stir through the tomato mix and remaining tomato wedges, then bubble over a high heat for 5 mins, stirring so the sauce doesn't catch.

    This is one of the simplest, quickest, freshest curries ever and I have made it several times. I am a veggie, so add a quorn fillet instead of prawns, but I have made it for a friend with prawns and it went down a treat!

    What a lovely curry! I added a bit of extra chilling with the onions to give it a bit more of a kick.

    Delicious, quick and healthy too. Added some fresh chilli to the ginger/garlic paste and a quick sprinkle of garam masala before serving.

    Made this instead of getting a takeaway!! Was really pleased with the results! I did use a little more curry paste than the recipe said, and also half a tin of chopped tomatoes as I like alot of sauce!! Have leftovers in the freezer and will make again for sure!

    Is there anything that works well in this curry, apart from prawns? They are so expensive that I only have them about once a year! If I made it as it is, without the prawns, would it still be tasty enough, do you think?

    Very nice curry, not hot at all so you may want to add some chillies. When I cook this again I will add the tomato pieces right at the end of cooking so they stay whole.

    This is a really delicious curry and very easy to make. I've made it a few times when we've had visitors - it has gone down very well and I have been forced to hand over the recipe!! Also, my partner who fancies himself as a curry critic, says this is better than meals we've had in some of the fancy curry houses we've been to - a massive compliment!!! It even looks like a real authentic dish, unlike some recipies I've tried.

    Very good and tasty, though my son didn't like it very much. Reduced garlic and curry paste as we don't like things too spicy
