Key Ingredient:
Prawns
Ingredients:
⦁ 500 grams prawns, peeled and deveined
⦁ 1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste
⦁ 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
⦁ 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
⦁ 1/2 teaspoon garam masala powder
⦁ Salt to taste
⦁ 2 tablespoons rice flour (optional, for crispiness)
⦁ Oil for shallow frying
⦁ Lemon wedges for serving
⦁ Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
Instructions:
⦁ In a bowl, combine prawns with ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala powder, and salt. Mix well to coat the prawns evenly with the spices. Let it marinate for 10-15 minutes.
⦁ Heat oil in a frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
⦁ If using rice flour, sprinkle it over the marinated prawns and mix well to coat them evenly. This will help in making the prawns crispy.
⦁ Once the oil is hot, add the marinated prawns in a single layer. Fry in batches if needed, do not overcrowd the pan.
⦁ Fry the prawns for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Flip them carefully using tongs to ensure even cooking.
⦁ Remove the fried prawns from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
⦁ Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
Serving:
⦁ Serve hot and crispy Prawns Fry as an appetizer or side dish with your favorite dipping sauce or chutney.
Recipe Notes:

⦁ Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the prawns to ensure they fry evenly and become crispy.
