    when you cook the chicken and prawns,do you put any masala in them or do you just cook them in plain water?

  • http://www.mariasmenu.com Maria

    I cooked chicken and prawns with a pinch of salt only. I didnt add any masala.

    Maria,

    I tried this recipe and it came out well. I made it in a wok and that kind of helps the rice to fry better and get incorporated with the other ingredients in a cohesive manner. I also added Chinese chilly paste as my husband likes it really hot. There’s a particular sauce called the Sriracha sauce thats extremely spicy but gives a good Chinese flavor. Not sure if you get it in Bahrain but its available in the US.

    Also if you check out paula deen’s recipes on foodnetwork.com, her cakes and desserts are usually very yummy.

    • http://www.mariasmenu.com Maria

      Hi Liz,

      Thanks for trying out the recipe dear :)

      I’m hearing about the Sriracha sauce for the first time, I will check whether its available here during my next grocery shopping. Thanks for the info.

      Yep, I’ve seen some of the recipes of Paula Deen but I havent tried any. Looks like I should :)

      Cheers

    Mariakuttyyeh..
    Yea Paulas recipes are good but very fattening & rich also.

    My suggestion.. if trying her recipes… try to cut the amount of fat & sugar. Everybody mostly here in U.S agrees her recipes are yummy, but little unhealthy also :)

  • Sherin

    Daaa….
    Relly nice recipe. Only thing i added etc was chopped onion w/vegs. Came out fantastic. Yum yumm nnu kazhichu. Mariakuttyykku jai :)
