Prawn Ghee Roast is a popular recipe that comes from Mangalore. Made by toasting and grinding whole spices and combining with Tamarind and quick Marinaded Prawns. This is the perfect dish  for the colder weather and is a very quick recipe to make.

Prawn Ghee Roast

250 g King Prawns (Deveined, Without Shell)

tbsp Plain Yoghurt

tsp Red Chilli Powder

½ tsp Turmeric Powder

Lime

Salt

tbsp Coriander Seeds

Dry Red Chillies

tsp Black Peppercorns

½ tsp Black Mustard Seeds

tsp Fenugreek Seeds

¼ tsp Fennel Seeds

tbsp Ghee

Curry Leaves (Fresh)

Garlic (Crushed)

tsp Green Chilli Paste (or 1 Green Chilli finely sliced)

tbsp Tamarind Paste

Sugar (Optional)

Lime Juice

Marinate the prawns with the ingredients listed underneath that heading above.

Heat a pan over medium high and dry roast the ingredients listed under &#039;whole spice powder&#039; until aromatic and the mustard seeds begin to crackle. Place in a bowl to cool slightly then grind to a powder using a spice grinder.

Heat 2 tbsp ghee in the same pan or a wok if you have one. 

Add curry leaves. Stir for a minute.

Add crushed garlic and chillies. Saute for 1 minute.

Add spice powder (my blender isn&#039;t working well, hence the coarse texture) and turn the heat down. Saute for 10 minutes. 

Add Prawns and cook for 5 minutes before adding Tamarind and cooking for a further minute or two.

Add water if needed. Taste and add a pinch of sugar if you like.

Pour over remaining ghee and add a squeeze of lime juice.
