Sweet Pineapple Curry @ Pajeri Nanas

When we went to the nearby grocery store, we found out that whole pineapples were on sale, it was just 45 cent each. So we bought one. At home, I came across the photo of Pajeri Nanas from Joayee's blog and decided to cook the same but using my grandmother's version of Pajeri. Here is the recipe to share...

• Onion - sliced
  
• Garlic - sliced
  
• Ginger - sliced

• Meat Curry Powder mix with a bit of water
  
• Coconut milk
• 'Kerisik'
• Salt
• Sugar
• Tamarind juice (opt)
  
• Prawns
  

Methods:

1. Add some oil into the hot pot. Fry the prawns until cook and leave aside.
   
2. Using the same oil, fry the curry leaves, star anise, cinnamon bark, cardamom and cloves for a while.
3. Add the onion, garlic and ginger, fry until soft and golden.
4. Add the curry powder with some water.
   
5. Pour the coconut milk and some 'kerisik'.
6. Add some salt and sugar, and let it simmer for a while.
7. Add the pineapple. Stir until the gravy coating the pineapple.
