Heat ½ tbsp oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat, add the desiccated coconut and cook for 3-4 minutes, until evenly browned. Tip into a bowl. Meanwhile, put the coconut milk powder in a jug and stir in 200ml water until smooth; set aside.
Heat the remaining ½ tbsp oil in the same pan over a medium heat. Add the onion, ginger, garlic and chilli; season. Cook for 10 minutes, until golden and soft. Add the spice paste, ground spices and curry leaves, then cook for 1-2 minutes, until the mustard seeds pop. Stir in the tamarind, ⅔ of the toasted coconut, the coconut milk and 250ml water; bring to the boil then simmer for 5 minutes.
Add the green beans and cook for 4-5 minutes, then stir in the prawns and cook until piping hot (1-2 minutes). Scatter over the remaining coconut and some coriander. Serve with the steamed basmati rice and lime wedges.
