shrimp fry

I love fish but my husband likes shrimp. So I make shrimp dishes regularly. It is also so much easier to make. Especially this shrimp fry will go with rice and any gravy/daal.

You can use both fresh or frozen shrimp for this. Just clean the shrimp by removing the outer cover (shell) and wash it.

Ingredients

• Cleaned shrimp – 1 cup
• Rava – 2 tablespoons
• Tamarind – size of a marble
• Chilli powder – 4 tablespoons
• Tumeric powder – half teaspon
• Garlic (optional)
• Oil
• Salt to taste

Method

• Cook the shrimp with some water till the shrimp changes colour and is well cooked (abt 10 minutes)
• Meanwhile make a paste of the tamarind with a little water. Add the chilli powder, turmeric and salt to it and mix it to a fine paste. You can also add 2 cloves of crushed garlic at this stage.
• Coat each shrimp with rava and shallow fry on a pan with a generous amount of oil.
• Serve with onion and lime wedges.

Preparation time: 20 minutes
