Pil Pil Style Prawns

Pour the cold water for the rice (see ingredients for amount) into a medium saucepan with a tight fitting lid, stir in the rice and 0.25 tsp of salt, cover with the lid and bring to the boil on medium high heat. Once boiling, turn the heat down to its lowest setting. Leave to cook for 10 mins, then remove the pan from the heat (still covered) and leave to the side for another 10 mins or until ready to serve (the rice will continue to cook in its own steam).

Meanwhile, pop the peppers onto a baking tray, drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast on the top shelf of your oven until charred and soft, 14-16 mins.

While everything cooks, heat a drizzle of olive oil (see ingredients for amount) in a frying pan on medium high heat. Once hot, add the onion and season with salt and pepper. Cook until really nice and soft, 8-10 mins, and stir every few minutes. Once soft, add the prawns, chilli and garlic. TIP: The chilli is hot, so add as much chilli as you like! Stir together and cook for 2-3 mins, then add the red wine vinegar, allow it to bubble away until it has evaporated, 1 minute.

Stir the tomato puree into the prawns and cook for 1 minute, then pour in the water (see ingredients for amount). Season with salt and pepper and add the sugar (see ingredients for amount) and vegetable stock powder. Stir together and cook until the sauce has thickened, 2-3 mins. Stir in the pepper strips once they're cooked. IMPORTANT: The prawns are cooked when they’re opaque all the way through. Remove from the heat.
