Prawns Fry
One more prawns recipe. I guess I’ve posted more prawns recipes here than fish recipes . After all who can resist prawns right ?? Some people might say prawns increase your cholesterol, but once in a while its ok to indulge in such simple pleasures of life, isn’t it, what say ;)??
Anyways,didn’t I tell you in my previous post, about the royal pampering back home :)?? Yes, this comes from my Mom in law’s kitchen. We, Jose n myself, just loved it. I was multitasking at lunch time on the day this was made… stocking up the prawns in my plate, covering it from eagle eyes (read Jose ;) ) and enjoying each bite of it…
Hope you will also enjoy it as we did :)
Here is the recipe:
- Tiger prawns – 10
- Ginger garlic paste – 1 tsp
- Chilly powder – 1 tsp
Pepper powder – 1tsp
Turmeric powder – 1/4 tsp - Oil – 1tsp
- Lemon juice – 1 tsp
- Curry leaves – chopped
- Oil – for frying
Salt
Combine all the ingredients and make a paste. Marinate the prawns with this paste and keep aside for half an hour. Heat oil in a pan and shallow fry it for 5-7 minutes. If you fry it for long, the prawns will become hard.
Notes: You can put the prawns on a skewer/tooth pick and fry, if you wish. Using coconut oil will enhance the flavor.

I havent tried any dish with dried shrimps so far.
However I have a recipe for fresh prawns & mango curry. Not sure whether you can make it with dried prawns. Please have a look at it & see..
