Easy Prawn Jalfrezi Recipe
This easy prawn jalfrezi recipe is my take on my favourite dish from my local Indian Take away. I have always wanted to make it.
So with the kids at their Mums for the weekend, tonight was the night. On my way home from work I picked up all the required ingredients and even got lucky and found a pack of fresh prawns in the yellow sticker section reduced down to £1.20.
So Prawn Jalfrezi it was. This easy prawn jalfrezi recipe could easily be upscaled for more people by slightly tweaking the ingredients. There is a handy toggle to do so within the recipe below.

Instructions
Easy Prawn Jalfrezi Recipe
- After heating the oil in my wok, I chucked in the onions, ginger and garlic and cooked for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. I then added all the spices, chilli flakes and coriander stalks, gave it a quick stir and then chucked in the tomatoes. I then blitzed it all down using a hand blender (you can add a little water if it goes a bit paste-like). Then I added the peppers and gave it a quick stir before covering it and let it simmer for ten minutes.It is really thick and will splutter a bit, so remember to stir occasionally.Finally, I added the prawns and coriander leaves before serving it on a bed of rice.
