Preparation
For the fried shallots peel and thinly slice 10-15 shallots. Dry on a paper towel. Heat about the oil until moderately hot in a small shallow saucepan. Add shallots and fry until golden brown. Remove and drain thoroughly before storing in an airtight jar.The rice
In a large saucepan over a medium-low heat, warm the oil. Add onion and sauté for 3-5 minutes. Mix in green peas, bay leaf, and jasmine rice. Stir to coat the rice.
Pour 3 cups of water into the saucepan and add the salt. Increase the heat to medium and let the rice come to a quick simmer. Reduce heat to low and let rice simmer lightly and sit uncovered until all of the liquid is absorbed. Cover the rice and remove from heat, let sit for approximately 40 minutes.
The curry
Blend or process shallots, coriander leaves, lemon grass, curry powder, garlic, ginger, galangal and chilli paste. Add a little of the coconut milk and continue to blend until a smooth paste is formed. Heat wok. Add paste and stir-fry 1 minute until aromatic. Add coconut milk, lime leaves and fish sauce, bring to a boil. Add eggplant and simmer 10 minutes until tender. Add prawns and cook 2 minutes until firm.

Hot Tips
Goose fat and roast potatoes
Rough up the edges of parboiled potatoes by tossing them around the colander (like you would bounce a tennis ball on a racket) this helps create a crunchy exterior. Add them to the roasting dish with a couple of tablespoons of duck or goose fat, rolling in the fat and season generously.
Glossary
Gremolata
Italian garnish of raw, finely chopped garlic, parsley and lemon zest. It is usually sprinkled over slow-cooked braised meats, especially Osso Bucco.
