Take the vessel that you are going to use to cook this curry and place ingredients 3-12. Mix it well with your hands for sometime until the onions are soft. Now add the thin coconut milk and let the mixture boil. Once it boils, add the mangoes and prawn. Once both prawns and mangoes are cooked, reduce the flame and add the thick coconut milk. Switch off the flame before it boils. Now make the tadka and add it to the hot curry.

Enjoy with rice. It is a very tasty dish. You can omit the prawns and still have a great mango curry.
