Prawn Fry / Iral Varuval:
I started eating prawn only
after marriage, my sister makes nice prawn masala. I started liking prawn
after eating in her home. She adds lots the onion to her prawn
masala. Though I like all prawn in any form now. My favourite prawn
dish is cereal prawn, I will post this recipe soon. This prawn fry is a simple
