I haven't post any recipes for quite a long time, but today I felt I want to post this prawns recipe just because I crave for Indian food for the past few days. Another reason is this prawn masala taste was really good and mon mari said that this is an exceptional dishes. It's surprising but at the same time I'm happy that he liked it.
For me, this meal doesn't need to be fancy, just something that provide a satisfying meal and we enjoyed the food.
