Prawns hold a special place in any non-veg lovers heart. Yes?? Who would not love those flavorful, crunchy fried prawns with some steaming rice? They are one of the favorite sea foods at my home too, especially the fried ones. This special prawn dry fry is my Mom's super recipe. It has a distinct and delicious aroma and flavor. The prawns are just perfectly cooked. Below is how to prepare this interesting dish.
This dish is quite easy to prepare. Many people I know are a bit reluctant to cook prawns at home, worrying about how to clean it. Well, it's not that difficult too. You just need a little practice and then, there you go, all ready to work on it.
