Step 3 MOD: If you’ve chosen to add prawns to your meal, drain them, then add them to the pan with the chickpeas in the next step. The prawns will cook through while simmering. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw prawns. They’re cooked when pink on the outside and opaque in the middle.
