Instructions

  • Spicy Prawn Gravy—a bold, fiery dish that's dripping with flavor and ready to spice up your dinner table!
  • This spicy prawn gravy recipe is all about tender prawns swimming in a luscious, coconutty gravy with just the right kick of heat and aromatic spices.
  • Start by cleaning 500 grams of prawns, removing the shell and deveining them (because no one wants to deal with that later).
  • Marinate the prawns with 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon red chili powder, and a pinch of salt. Let them sit for 15 minutes to soak up all those flavors—it's like giving them a flavor spa day.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of coconut oil in a kadai, then toss in 1 teaspoon of mustard seeds and let them pop like they're at a party.
  • Add 1 finely chopped onion, 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste, and 2 slit green chilies. Saut this mix until the onions are golden brown and your kitchen smells like a dream.
  • Stir in 1 chopped tomato and cook until it melts into a soft, saucy base.
  • Now, crank up the heat and add the marinated prawns, letting them cook for 2-3 minutes on high flame—just enough to seal in the juices.
  • Lower the heat, pour in 1 cup of creamy coconut milk, and let the gravy simmer gently for 10 minutes, allowing all the flavors to meld together.
  • Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of garam masala and adjust the salt to your liking.
  • Cook for another 5 minutes or until the gravy thickens to that perfect, scoopable consistency.
  • Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves for a pop of color and herbaceous finish.
  • Serve this spicy prawn gravy piping hot with steamed rice or soft chapatis for a meal that's guaranteed to impress. This recipe of spicy prawn gravy is your go-to for turning a regular dinner into a flavor-packed feast with minimal effort. Trust me, one bite and you'll be hooked!
