Step 1

1 Preheat your oven to 220C/200C fan/gas mark 7. Halve, peel and thinly slice the onion. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Slice into thin strips. Trim the green beans. Roughly chop the peanuts. Bash the lemongrass with the bottom of a pan, to release the flavour.

Step 2

2 Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add the onion and fry, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2-3 mins. Add the garlic and pepper, and fry until starting to soften, 1-2 mins. Add the Sri Lankan style curry powder and turmeric, and fry until fragrant, 1 min.

Step 3

3 Add the lemongrass, coconut milk, vegetable stock and water (see ingredients for amount). Stir together and simmer until thickened slightly, 2-3 mins.

Step 4

4 Add the green beans to a baking tray with a drizzle of oil. Add the ginger puree and if you’d like to, season with salt and pepper, then toss to evenly coat the beans. Roast on the middle shelf of the oven, until golden, 5-7 mins. Turn halfway.

Step 5

5 Add the prawns to the curry and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the prawns are fully cooked, 6-7 mins. If you’d like to, season with salt and pepper. IMPORTANT: The prawns are cooked when opaque all the way through.

Step 6

6 Discard the lemongrass, then divide the Sri Lankan style prawn curry between your bowls. Add the ginger green beans to the curry. Garnish with the peanuts.
