Here is a simple tasty spicy Prawn recipe. I don't eat Prawns, but I do cook for my husband. I mostly cook Prawns fry for him. This time, he wanted it more spicier and I tried this recipe and I got appreciation. Addition of Sambar powder enhances the taste to this recipe. This goes well with Fried rice or starter dish.
INGREDIENTS:
To Marinate:
Prawns 1/2 kg
Ginger garlic paste 1tbsp
Turmeric powder 1/2 tsp
Red chilli powder 1 tsp
Coriander powder 2 tsp
Corn flour 1 tsp
Maida/all purpose flour 1 tbsp
Sambar powder 1.5 tsp
Thick Tamarind juice 2 tsp
Red Food Color a small pinch (Optional)
Lemon juice 2 tsp
Salt To taste
To Cook:
Onion 1 no
Green Chillies 8
Garlic 2 tsp (Finely chopped)
Soya Sauce 2 tsp
Chilli Sauce 2 tsp
Spring Onion To Garnish
METHOD:
- Remove the shell and clean Prawns very well. Finely chop the onions and spring onions. Split the green chillies.
- Mix all the ingredients mentioned in "To Marinate" Section with Prawns and mix well. Allow it to marinate for atleast 1 hr.
- In a kadai, heat oil and fry the prawns till it becomes brown and keep aside.
- In a Pan, heat Oil and saute Onion till it becomes golden brown. Add Garlic and Green Chillies. Now add the Prawns and stir it for 2 mins in medium flame.
- Add Chilli Sauce and stir well in high flame. Add Soya Sauce and stir well. Garnish with Spring Onion and remove from the flame.
Tips:
- Ajinamotto and Vinegar can be added in Marination step for more taste, but it is highly optional.
- Don't cook Prawns much in Step 4 as it will becomes rubbery since Prawns will be cooked faster.
- Add more green chillies according to your taste as adding sauces will have sweet flavour..
