Osterize everything except the prawns, onion, tomato in a blender. Fry the prawns for two minutes, remove and drain. Brown the onions, add the contents of the blender, shortly after which, add the tomatoes; cook till well blended. Add the prawns and fry till done.

This is a side dish, good with vegetables and rice.
