- Add ginger garlic paste and cook well for 10 mins by closing the lid.
- After 10 Minutes check the tenderness of the prawn, we should see that whether prawn is little soft and it is easy to separate. If not cook for other 2-5 minutes by closing lid.
- open the lid and fry the curry till all the water in the kadai gets evaporated
- Now put the following ingredients (cinnamon, cloves, elachi, poppy seeds, Little amount of water) into blender. Make it as a fine paste and add to the curry.
- After 5 mins add red chilli powder and salt, mix well till it gets nearly cooked. If it is cooked well now add the green chillies and fry for another 5-10 mins .
- In the meanwhile fry the cashews in the other pan either with ghee or oil and keep a side.
- Once the curry was cooked well add the cashews and curry leaves to the curry and fry for 1 min & off the stove.
- Serve hot with chapati/roti/rice/sambar. Enjoy the real taste of sea food..............
Tips:
- Do not fry prawns in oil before as they turn to very hard.
- Do not cook in high and do not add water. Prawn consists of full water while cooking all the water from prawns would be enough to cook the curry. if required add 1/4 cup of water.
