Instructions

To make the seafood stock:

  1. Deshell and clean your prawns (Search youtube for detailed steps)
  2. Pour the oil into a large pot over medium-high heat, once heated add the prawn shells and heads
  3. Stir fry until bright orange, then roughly chop the onion, score the tomato, and add them to the pot
  4. Add in the garlic, spices, and remaining ingredients, then top with 2L (2 quarts) of water
  5. Bring to a boil then skim using a ladle, allow to simmer for half an hour
  6. Drain using a fine-mesh sieve, making sure to remove all shells and vegetables

To make the rice:

  1. Thoroughly wash the rice until clear and set it aside to drain
  2. Dice your onions into a medium dice
  3. Add the oil and onions to a pot over medium heat
  4. Cook the onions for about 30 minutes, stirring every few minutes until they are a very dark brown
  5. Once they are coffee color, add a few ladles of stock to deglaze the pot
  6. Slice the green chili and add it in with salt, pepper, and cumin. Allow boiling for about 5-10 minutes
  7. Add the washed rice to the pot and bring this to a boil, turn the heat down to medium and cover with a tight-fitting lid
  8. Check the pot every couple of minutes, and once the water has dropped below the surface of the rice, turn the heat down to low
  9. Allow this to steam for 20-25 minutes covered, adding the prawns halfway through (mix them with the other ingredients mentioned above)
  10. If the rice is a little wet after this time, allow it to steam on low heat with the lid off for a few more minutes
  11. Serve while hot and enjoy!
