Steps

10 mins

1

In a bowl toss prawns with 1/2 tsp of salt and turmeric powder. Fry these prawns in butter at high flame for 1 min. (not more) and set aside in a bowl.
2

In a wok or frying pan, add 1 tbsp of ghee/butter and add onion, garlic and small green chilies. Fry them until they turn golden brown. Add in chopped tomatoes along with salt, red chili powder, and 1/4 tsp of turmeric powder. Mix and cover the wok/pan with a lid and reduce the flame to low. Allow the tomatoes to soften up. (you can use an immersion blender if the tomatoes don't soften up properly) It'll take about 15 mins.
3

When the tomatoes have softened up to form a uniform curry base, add whole green chilies, yoghurt and garam masala powder. Cook the masala for 5 mins.
Throw in the prawns and cover the wok. Cook for 4 mins max.
Turn off flame, sprinkle some chopped coriander, ginger strips, some more green chilies.
