Prawn Fry

Prawn Fry:

  Prawn Fry is a yummy combo with rice and curry. Even a dal curry will do. It goes well with any meals. After coming to chennai i had a chance to taste the prawn for the first time in my life. (I tasted it in a hotel).Since before 6 years  my hubby and me went  to a hotel and he asked for trying the prawn. Then we searched in menu and ordered for prawn golden fry. Yes we got it after 30 min of ordering and i was eager to taste it. It was a yummy golden color with the steam over it. OMG !!!!! On my first tasting of that prawn, it made me to hate prawns. After some months i was suppose to have dinner in our friends house and again a chance to taste prawns. I refused a lot to taste it, but they assure that it tastes good. Then tried with a piece of prawn..... Wow!!! I really started to like prawn. Cleaning of prawn is very important. Otherwise it smells bad after cooking.
