    Kerala Prawn Fry Recipe

    Now off to the recipe. Hubby almost loves all seafood dishes. But this is his absolute favourite one. I have to share one more important thing with you all, can you guys believe that this is my first attempt of making a prawn dish. Actually speaking I have never ever touched a prawn. I was a bit scared when I thought of cleaning it, but it is so easy peasy to clean a prawn. I am planning to do a video on how to clean a prawn, so keep checking it.

    Nowadays you can find prawns which are cleaned and frozen right for you in the market, you can use that too.  Let's talk something about this recipe. There is nothing more to say than it is spicy, tangy, succulent, juicy and of course YUMMY. I hope you will love this as much my hubby did and tell me how it turned out for you.
