Hi... Foodies !!!!!!!
Have you tasted before a dish named "Chemmeen peera pattichathu"???.....I am sure at least few would have prepared or tasted this dish... Here I m presenting for you people this tasty recipe.. Hope you will all love it....It's simple & easy to cook and it is a side dish as well.. Only few ingredients are required to prepare this ...
To be frank let me tell u something.....In my earlier posts I had mentioned you that Prawns are seen in fresh water and in sea. If we use fresh water prawns, the meat will be very soft and more tasty.. So I prefer you all to use fresh water prawns..Due to unavailability of fresh water prawns in my town, I have used here sea water prawns. We can use both the types for this dish which are discussing today...
One more thing which we have to keep in mind is that Do not over cook prawns..So use less quantity of water to cook....
