Tomato sauce:
1 kg tomatoes, chopped or one tin tomatoes
1 Tbs tomato paste
8 red shallots, chopped
8 garlic cloves
1 leek, white part only, chopped
1/2 tsp oregano
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 tsp grated palm sugar or raw sugar
3 Tbs vegetable oil.
2 bay leaves
8 raw prawns, remove shell from body, leave head and tail
500g marinara mix
2 Tbs oil
1/2 onion, finely chopped
2 red shallots, finely chopped
6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 tsp chopped chiles
3 tsp grated ginger
4 kaffir lime leaves
200ml chicken stock
2 tsp fish sauce
2 carrots, jullienned
15 snow peas
salt and pepper
Simmer tomato sauce ingredients for about 1 hour or until oil rises to the surface. You need 6 heaped Tbs for the paella. the remainder is great on pizza.
Heat oil in wok, add onion, shallots, garlic, chili, ginger and lime leaves and stir fry for about 30 seconds. add the tomato sauce and carrots, along with chicken stock and fish sauce and bring to a simmer. Add seafood prawns and snow peas just a few minutes before serving. They take only a few minutes to cook. Serve on hot yellow rice cooked with tumeric, lemongrass and kaffir lime leaves, stirring in a little, but making sure there is still bright yellow rice visible.
