Method
Preparation
Rinse the rice in a sieve and set aside to drain.
Skin the onions and chop small.
Defrost the prawns.
Cooking
Add the rice to boiling water and add the rice spices and seasoning.
Cover and simmer until soft (15 minutes).
Fry the onion until soft and translucent and then add the crushed garlic.
Whisk the garlic round and then a few seconds later add the herbs and stir.
Add the wine before the herby onions start to stick, and then the tomatoes and the tomato puree.
Mix nicely and simmer.
Season with salt and pepper to taste
Add the defrosted prawns to the herby mixture and heat through.
Assembly
When cooked, drain the rice and turnout into serving dishes.
Pour the prawns sauce over the rice and present with a twist of lemon and a sprig of parsley.
To serve

Variation
* If you prefer, use brown basmati rice. Just increase the cooking time to 25 minutes
then stand for 10 minutes with the cover on.
