PRAWNS SPICY MASALA !!

Hi... Foodies.....I am really happy today actually happy to the core of my heart..This happiness is  because of the  response I recieved from all the people  for the 2 recipes I posted last day...My  sincere gratitude to each one of you out there...

So..here we go with another special recipe..and yeah since I made it with a very happy mind it has turned out to an absolutely delicious one  too..

You must have made many types of Prawns recipes .. I myself is a Prawn lover..So I always try to make something new with prawns..At last today I tried out something new using the whole spices..Since prawns are boneless and fleshy,I have used the masalas and other ingredients which we generally use for meat items.I am sure this will be a remarkable dish for you....I have personalised the name of this dish as "Prawns Spicy  Masala"..It is actually a gravy in form..For masala, instead of powder I have  fried and grounded the whole masala....so that you will get an authentic flavour in the dish....A real dish should not only  saturate ones hunger but also the soul..One should feel happiness and content when they have food..

What ever we make with prawns are always  mouth lingering. Every where we can find people who loves prawns dishes. This species has become widespread because of its popularity  and taste in world-wide. We can also  use prawns after drying it under the sun.
