Clean, peel and chop into quarter-inch dice the
peppers, onion and the okra. Heat the oil in a large
pan and fry hr garlic with the onion, peppers and okra
for about five minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook it
gently for about 25 minutes, stirring occasionally
until you have a nice bright sauce. It looks lovely as
it is full of different colours.

Season generously with allspice, cayenne pepper, the
salt and the black pepper.

Add thr prawns. If they are raw, cook for seven
minutes. If they are already cooked and pink give them
just three minutes to heat them through - otherwise
you will end up with a pound of india rubber!

Stir so the prawns are covered in the sauce, sprinkle
with a little parsley and serve immeadiately with lots
of boiled rice.
