Prawns Roast

So after quite a long time I'm back with my signature recipe Prawns Roast. Now this is another keralite recipe that's made in its traditional way. I 'm sure you will like it if you try it especially with rice or rotis or even aapams and idlis so just give it a try and enjoy this dish from Gods Own Country,,,

Ingredients:

1. Prawns --  500 gms
2. Shallots  --  1 cup sliced finely
3. Onions  --  2 chopped finely
4. Green Chilies  -- 2 slit
5. Tomatoes  --  1 large chopped finely
6. Crushed ginger and garlic  --  about 1 tablespoon 
7. Pepper crushed  -- 1 1/2tsp
8. Turmeric powder  --  1 tsp
9. Chilli Powder  --  2 1/2 tsp
10. Coriander Powder  --  1 1/2tsp
11. Eastern Meat Masala  --  1 tsp
12. Curry Leaves to garnish
13. Fennel Seeds  --  1 tsp crushed
14. Coconut Oil  --  4 tablespoon.
15. Salt to taste

Method:

• First marinate the prawns with half teaspoon of turmeric powder, one teaspoon of chilli powder and a little salt and shallow fry it just for 2 minutes do not over cook the prawns.
• Next in a deep kadai heat about 3 tablespoon of oil and add the shallots and fry a bit.
• Now add the crushed ginger and garlic to the shallots and then saute nicely.
• Now add the onions sliced and give it a nice mix.
• Next add the green chilies and add some curry leaves to it.
• The onions must be nicely brown. You can now add the tomatoes and saute well.
• Add turmeric powder, chilli powder, coriander powder and then mix well.
• If the masala is too dry then there is chances that it may burn. So to prevent this sprinkle some water and make it moist.
• Add salt to the masala and then add the fried prawns to it. Now coat the prawns with the masala and lower the flame.
• Cook this in low flame for about 5 minutes.
• Now finally add the eastern meat masala and give it a quick stir.
• At last add the crushed pepper, fennel seeds and some more curry leaves to the prawns roast.
• Finally add one tablespoon of coconut oil and switch off the flame and put the lid so that all the flavors is intact in it!
