Free to cook
Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the lemongrass and lime 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. Transfer to the oven and bake until set, bubbling and golden on top.
Stir in the palm sugar and the rest of the lemongrass and lime flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.
Add the baby potatoes 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.
