Prawns Masala Fried

Prawns Masala Fried

Prawns Masala Fried is a dish served at most Goan restaurants. It uses the Goan Recheado Masala which is a spicy and tangy masala. Owing to this, one can even use frozen prawns for this dish as frozen prawns have lost some or most of their flavour and the Recheado Masala will cover up for this. However freshly shelled and de-veined prawns will of course make the dish tastier. This dish is great to serve as a side with simple preparations like a rice and a dal. It can also be served as nibbles with hard drinks.
