PRAWN ROAST

This one is another best & delicious recipe of my mom's.. She used to cook this dish in a heavy iron kadai using coconut oil & frying to such an extent that the masala coats the prawns & the oil oozes out, I made a little change by adding tomato puree. Try this recipe, it's very  yummyyy!!!!!!.

Preparation time: 10-15min.
Cooking time:15-20 min.
Serves : 3

  • 1 sprig curry leaves.
  • 2-3 tsp chilly powder ( according to your taste)
  • Salt to taste.
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric powder.
  • 1/2 tsp jeera powder.
Method:
  • Clean the prawns by removing the center nerve part & wash it well.
  • Heat oil in a pan add the onion, green chilly, ginger, garlic paste curry leaves &fry till brown.
  • Add the prawns, chilly powder, turmeric powder, jeera powder & saute for 1 min.
