INGREDIENTS:
Prawns 2 cups (Vegetarians could choose to use Mushroom to follow the same recipe.)
Turmeric powder 1 tblsp
Salt to taste
Coriander seeds 1 tblsn
Cumin seeds 1 tspn
Whole dry red chillies 5
Cinnamon 2 inch stick
Cloves 5-6
Black peppercorns 15
Garlic paste 2 tbspn
Ginger crushed/paste 3 tbspn
Onions chopped 4 medium
Tomatoes chopped 6 medium
Coriander leaves chopped 1/2 cup
Oil 5-6 tblsp
Preparation:
I've used frozen Prawns that were already de-veined and shelled.
Thaw if you choose to use frozen fish and wash them thoroughly under running water.
Pat dry them & apply turmeric powder and salt to the prawns and keep aside for 15 minutes.
Dry roast and then grind coriander seeds, cumin seeds, red chillies, cinnamon, cloves, black peppercorns, garlic and ginger to a fine paste.
Heat oil and saute the prawns lightly.
Keep aside on a kitchen tissue to absorb the excess oil.
Saute onions in the same oil till they become soft and brown.
Add the ground spices paste and fry until the mixture begins to give off a nice aroma.
Add tomatoes and cover the lid to fry for a few minutes till the tomates are cooked well.
Add salt and fried prawns.
Cover the pan and cook for five minutes.
Garnish with coriander leaves.
Serve hot with rice or Indian bread/Roti/Naan.
