🧂 Ingredients

250 gms Medium Sized Prawns

(approx 25 pcs)
½ Tspn Turmeric powder
1 Tspn Kashmiri Chilly Powder
½ Tspn Ginger Garlic paste
¼ Tspn Sugar
1 Tspn Vinegar

(or juce of lemon)
6-7 Curry Leaves
1 Tbspn Oil(for frying)

(I've used Coconut Oil)
Fine Semolina/Rawa for frying

Instructions

1 Wash the Prawns with 1/2 cup water, with shell on just once and drain off all
water
2 Take off the Head, Tail & Shell of the Prawns(you can keep the head and tail on
if you like)
3 With the help of a sharp knife, Slit the back of each Prawn in the centre and
remove the black string like object.

Some Gyaan: The black string in the prawn is it's digestive tract. The darker
the string the higher the level of dirt. Hence its always advicable to take off
the string for hygiene and digestive purpose. The process of taking off the
black string is called 'deveining'
4 Place all the prawns into a bowl and apply 1/2tspn salt. Mix it well and keep
aside for 10minutes
5 Then add the gingergarlic paste, turmeric powder, chilly powder, sugar and
vinegar
6 In a pan, Heat 1tbspn oil on High flame
7 Throw in the Prawns and the curry leaves and let the prawns fry on high flame
for 20seconds on each side

Note: if prawns are fried or cooked for too long they become hard, rubbery and
chewy.
8 Immediately Remove the Prawns from the pan and place it on a kitchen paper
napkin to soak out any excess oil
9 For Rawa Fry, coat each prawn with rawa/semolina and then follow steps 7 & 8
