Welcome to my easy Indian prawn soup in the soup maker. Or for you Americans out there my easy Indian shrimp soup!
I love Indian food and add prawns and I am in my happy place. As the grand daughter and niece of fishermen I grew up with seafood and in particular prawns. They were a staple of everyday life.
I would have them while going for a walk by the beach to snack on, prawn cocktail was the only restaurant starter that I would bother with and give me a wok and I am there creating endless dishes with prawns.
Even better my boys hate them, my daughter hasn’t discovered them yet and my cats don’t stand a chance in getting them, so they are ALL MINE.
I must admit the lack of prawns was the one thing that I was struggling to live without when I was pregnant.
I was craving them everyday but as they are a high risk food I stayed away and then once Sofia had been born I had one big binge.
The first time I did try prawns was at my Indian restaurant and this is what the inspiration is behind this delicious recipe.
So get ready for a quick, simple and tasty prawn curry soup with a difference!

Dish looks delicious. Photo is so inviting.. 🙂 And for an alternative, instead of lime, we can also use tamarind paste. That will give the same taste but a slightly different flavor. Nice share, Samantha. 🙂
