Rosie’s Prawn Curry
Take a handful of mushrooms & fry them for a while. Throw the prawns in. Decant off the liquid (to get rid of the salt, if you care about it) then fry a bit longer. Add one teaspoon of red curry paste & fry it all together for another minute. Add some coconut milk & let simmer for about 10 minutes, until the sauce has thickened. Eat with spoon :-)
Don't get me wrong, I love my low carb food, but this is the first time I've cooked an actual dish since I began, and I enjoyed it beyond words. I loved it, it was very filling, and what's more, I didn't even want to eat the last spoonfuls of sauce, so ha! Coconut doesn't set off my cravings :-)

1/4 block creamed coconut: 11.3g
