Prik king is a Thai chilli paste. It isn't a million kilometres away from a typical red curry paste in composition. I could have called this prawns with peas and beans. I didn't. The peas are snow peas. The beans are snake beans. Snow peas aren't traditional Thai, but they had big bags of them at the fruit shop and the sweetness of these worked well against the other flavours going on here. Snake beans seem to be around for most of the year. They like warm climates, which is probably why they are grown in far north Queensland and the Northern Territory. They're best when they're young and not too thick.
