Low Carb Quick and Easy Prawn Curry

This incredibly quick and easy prawn curry is perfect for weeknights when you are short on time. Our simple Keto curry is packed with fats and flavor from warming curry spices, aromatic onion and garlic, a hint of tomato, creamy coconut and juicy prawns. The curry is topped with cooling fresh cilantro to serve. This Keto Indian inspired recipe makes a great lunch or dinner option served with your preferred Keto sides.

Can I Use a Different Protein?

Our quick and easy Keto curry sauce has been designed for speed and simplicity. The sauce makes a versatile base to which you can add your preferred low carb additions and alternative protein if desired. We have used prawns for quick cooking; however, this could easily be replaced with diced fish, chicken, or tofu. Please be sure to adjust your macros and cooking times to allow for any alternative ingredients used.

Serving Suggestions

Our Keto curry recipe provides a generous portion of sauce, making it ideal served over a bed of cauliflower rice. We also recommend serving with some of our Keto coconut flour Indian flatbreads for mopping up the curry gravy. If you would like some refreshing sides, you can add our Keto Indian Avocado Salsa recipe. You will find these recipes and other low carb Indian dishes in our sides section.
