Low Calorie Prawn Stew

I've been trying the 5:2 Diet for the past few months and have got on OK with it as you only have to count calories on two days a week. This low calorie prawn stew is something I put together to keep me feeling well-fed on one of those days. I was surprised to find how few calories are in white fish and prawns - so they're not just delicious but really healthy too!
