Brazilian-style prawn and coconut stew (Moqueca)

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the prawns, 2 cloves garlic, orange zest and salt. Toss occasionally while making the stew.

Step 2

Heat a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the oil, onion, capsicum, chilli, and remaining garlic, and cook for 15 mins, or until the vegetables are very tender and nearly falling apart. Add the tomatoes and cook for 5 mins or until the tomatoes have broken down. Add the coconut milk and 1 cup water. Cover and bring to a simmer. Cook for 10 mins or until flavours have developed.

Step 3

Add the prawns to the coconut mixture and cook for 2-3 mins or until the prawns are just cooked through. Stir in the orange juice and the lime juice. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Spoon the rice into bowls. Top with the stew, then sprinkle with coriander and serve immediately.
