Cook the prawns till it just about turns pink in boiling water. Approximately 3-4 minutes. And then place it in an ice water bath. This will help retain the bright orange color. You can marinate the prawns 30mins before with some lemon juice, hot chilli sauce, crushed black pepper and salt to give the dish an extra boost.

Im a dentist with a passion to cook good food for my loved ones. I love being inspired by others and I'm not afraid to experiment in the kitchen. I grew up watching my mum cook some delicious delicacies and I also travelled around the world enjoying different cuisines. However, my heart lies with Indian cuisine. Lets cook together :)
