Prawn vindaloo is one of popular dish in certain Indian restaurant and I remember I order prawn vindaloo everytime we go out for Indian cuisine when I was working in Laos few years back. That was a great moment and I am glad that I had such a great experience living in another foreign country for an extended period of time.
Now, ever since I moved here, I realized that I didn't have a chance to eat more Indian cuisine as much as I did before. Here, even though we had been to Indian restaurant quite some time and enjoyed the food but they are just not the same anyway.
Therefore, whenever I crave for Indian food, I will do home-style Indian cooking at home. Prawn vindaloo is one of that dish and this recipe I found from pinterest.
