Mangalorean Prawn Ghassi Recipe

Recipe By Better Butter

Did you know that india has a coastal line which stretches about 7500 kilometers. So even if india does not look like a major fish eating country, river fish and seafood is actually a very integral part of people’s diet. Nothing tastes better than a freshly caught fish fried and served with some lime slices and onion. On the other hand, people often make a curry of it and eat with rice. A plate of rice served with fish curry can actually turn a boring weekend afternoon into a delightful weekend. Prawn ghassi is a very famous and most preferred prawn curry served in most south indian restaurant. The best prawns to make it are tiger prawns, large and succulent which is cleaned properly and head and tail removed. I went over many recipes in the internet and also few books and finally settled to use maria’s recipe from here. I made few adjustments like skipping tamarind as i am allergic to it. However, you can add lemon juice, kokum, tomato or dry mango to get the sourness. Also, i added some fennel seeds(saunf) which gives a nice and distinct flavour to the curry.
