I am a big fan of shrimp
dishes. Whenever my mom cooked some prawn curry we loved to have and had fight
with me, shanu and sis about that who is going to get more pieces.
When we started to cook
frozen prawn I didn't like it. Then we switched to buy fresh shrimp. That’s
really very nice yar…
This recipe is a simple and
easy dish. I’m sure this should be one of the mouth licking dishes…
And this goes well with
steamed rice, pulav, biryani, naan, chapatti, parota, idli, dosa…
