Step 1

Cut your red chilli in half lengthways, scrape the seeds out with a teaspoon and chop finely

Step 2

Cut your lemon. For each portion, you need a quarter of lemon for squeezing, and 2 wedges.

Step 3

Boil a kettle. Dissolve your vegetable stock mix, ground turmeric and half your tomato paste (you'll use the rest later!) in 225ml boiled water – this is your tomato stock

Step 4

Peel and finely dice your brown onion

Step 5

Deseed your sweet pointed pepper (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and finely dice

Step 6

Meanwhile, combine your white wine vinegar, chipotle paste, remaining chopped chilli and remaining tomato paste with the juice of half your lemon in a large mixing bowl. Add a drizzle of olive oil and season with a generous pinch of salt, then give everything a good mix up – this is your peri peri sauce

Step 7

Wash your lettuce, then pat it dry with kitchen paper and shred finely

Step 8

Combine your mayo with the juice of 1 lemon wedge and a drizzle of olive oil in a large bowl. Add the shredded lettuce to the bowl, give everything a good mix up – this is your lemony salad

Step 9

Heat a large non-stick pan with a matching lid with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat. Once hot, add the diced onion and diced pepper and cook for 3-4 min or until they've softened slightly

Step 10

Add your white long grain rice, tomato stock and half the chopped chilli to the pan and bring to the boil over a high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 12-15 min or until the water has absorbed and the rice is cooked. Once done, remove from the heat and set aside (lid on) to steam until serving – this is your spicy rice.

Step 11

Heat a separate large non-stick pan over a medium-high heat. Once hot, drain and add your king prawns with the peri peri sauce and cook for 4-5 min or until the prawns are cooked through – these are your peri peri king prawns

Step 12

Serve the peri peri king prawns with the spicy rice and lemony salad to the side. Garnish with your lemon wedges and enjoy!
