PRAWNS BAJJI...

crispy, crunchy prawns for your loved one's... this is the third time i am preparing it..the very first time i tried this recipe was when i had excess prawns at home and was thinking what to do with them.. i always have to think a lot about prawn recipes as my family don't like prawns and my task is to cook them in such a way that they don't ignore the dish saying " i don't like prawns"...

then i came up with the idea of deep frying prawns, like how i do the chicken recipes... and i was very sure that no one will reject this recipe as it is deep fried and without delaying a second i started preparing this recipe... it came out really well.. then i prepared this recipe when my aunt visited us and she loved it so much that she started preparing this recipe at her home when ever she gets prawns... 

and as today is sunday and non - veg is a must at my home, i thought of preparing this recipe and sharing with you all... am sure kids will love this prawns... and is a great treat to your taste buds..

SUGGESTIONS:

 ü  You can also add lemon to the marinated prawns if desired, before dropping them into oil.

 ü  You can also squeeze few drops on fried prawns before serving, if desired.

 ü  Food colour can also be added to the marinate. I don’t use food colour as it is not recommendable instead I use nice red chili powder for getting a better colour.
