In a frying pan with olive oil, cook the prawn heads over high heat and mash to release the juice.

Remove the heads and, over the released juice, add the raw prawns. Sauté for 2 minutes.

To prepare the sauce, mix the chicken broth and the coconut milk in a pan. Cook the mixture over high heat until it boils and, over medium heat, let it reduce to half.
