Method
- 1
Heat the coconut oil in a pan, add the sliced onion and fry for 7 minutes until softened.
- 2
Add the garlic and half the curry leaves, and fry for 2 minutes, then stir in the sri lankan roasted curry powder.
- 3
Pour in half the coconut milk and simmer for 6 minutes, then add the prawns and cook for 3-4 minutes until they turn pink.
- 4
Thin the dosa batter with the remaining coconut milk until it is the consistency of a thin pancake batter.
- 5
Heat a small, rounded wok or non-stick frying pan, pour in a ladle of the batter and swirl it around the sides as it cooks, so the edges are thin and lacy and the centre stays soft.
- 6
Crack an egg into the centre of each hopper, cover and cook for 2-3 minutes until the egg white is set but the yolk is still a little soft.
- 7
Repeat with the remaining batter and eggs, and serve hot with the prawn curry.
