This Caribbean Tart leans on lime and garlic to do the heavy lifting. We braise the Prawn for real depth, then bring it together in one pan.
Free to cook
Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the lime and garlic elements, and pat the prawn dry so it colours well.
Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Turn up the heat and add the prawn. Lower the heat, cover, and braise gently until everything is meltingly tender.
Stir in the thyme and the rest of the lime and garlic flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.
Add the sweetcorn along with a splash of stock or water, then cover and cook gently until everything is tender and the sauce clings.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little acid. It should taste bright, savoury and balanced.
Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
