Add onion chopped, season with 1 tsp salt, saute for 2 minutes.
Add potato diced, I've added 1 large potato.
Add ½ cup warm water, combine well & cook covered till potatoes have turned soft.
Don't overcook the potatoes.
Add shrimp or prawns, combine well & cook for a few minutes.
Add turmeric powder, fennel powder, garam masala, ground black pepper & ½ tsp salt. Combine well.
Cook for a few minutes.
Add sliced tomato, adding tomato is optional if you don't want tomato you can skip it.
Cook covered for 2 minutes.
Finally, add coconut milk; gently combine well & cook for 2 minutes.
Take the pan off the heat & keep it covered for a few minutes.
This stew tastes delicious when enjoyed with appam or chapati. Enjoy.
