Prawn fry

Ingredients
10-15 medium sized prawns
1 tsp ginger paste
1 tsp garlic paste
1 tsp turmeri paste
1 tsp chilli powder
lemon concentrate
salt

1 potato sliced into rectangular pieces
1 onion cut into sqaure chunks
oil


Procedure
Marinate the prawns with the masala and salt and keep it aside for about 1/2 an hr.
Take oil in a tava and fry the marinated prawns in it.
Add onion once the prawns turn red and fry it more.
Add potatoes in the end and fry till they are cooked.
Do not add water at any instant.
Do not cover the tava while cooking.
The potato slices might get a bit burnt at the edges but that's how it is supposed to be.

Instant and wonderful prawns. The original recipe was with tiny shrimp called "karandi" and fried on an iron tava. Nothing can beat that!
