3 Cover with plastic wrap (lift one corner), or a lid, and microwave on full power for 8 minutes. Set aside, covered.
4 In a large jug put tomatoes, tomato puree (paste), prawns (shrimp), crab meat and olives. Add salt and pepper to taste.
5 Cover with plastic wrap, and pierce. Microwave on full power for 6 minutes, stirring once, half way through cooking.
6 Cream the cornflour (cornstarch) to a smooth paste with a little cold water and stir into the hot seafood sauce. Return to the microwave on full power for 1 minute. Stir.
