      1 tb Hot red chili peppers, fresh           -sliced
      2 ts Cumin seed; ground      1 ts Mustard seeds

      1 ts -Salt     Grind the garlic, chili, cumin seed, mustard seeds,
  peppercorns & tumeric together in a processor with 2
  Tbsp of vinegar to act as a lubricant.
    Heat the oil in a pan and fry the onion paste over
  moderately low heat until light brown. Add the ground
  spices and continue to fry the mixture until it turns
  reddish, with a 'crumbled' look.
    Add the prawns & cook, stirring frequently for 10
  minutes. Add the balance of the vinegar, the water and
  salt and continue to simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes
  more. There will be very little sauce. Serve warm
  VARIATION: The prawn vindaloo can be prepared as a
  proper pickle, which means that it is a bottled (or
  refrigerated condiment) used now and then with other
  foods as an adjunct to the meat or fish dishes being
  served. Should you wish to prepare this as a pickle,
  follow the instructions, but omit the onions & and the
  water & cook the prawns separately in 2 Tbsp of oil
  before adding them to the mixture.
