Chemmeen Mulaku Curry

Chemmeen Mulaku Curry

Spicy prawns curry with rice is something you would love to indulge on. This recipe is the same as the fish muluku curry and here I have not used coconut. But you still have its flavor with the coconut oil. I have used kudam puli or Malabar tamarind, so this curry is a bit spicy and tangy.You can also make prawns curry with coconut milk or with grated coconut.

Ingredients

Prawns - 18-20 medium 

Shallots sliced- 3/4 cup

Ginger- thinly sliced- 2 tbs

Turmeric powder- 1/3 tsp

Chilly powder- 1 1/3 tsp

Kudam puli- 3-4 pieces

Green chilly-1

Curry leaves a few

Fenugreek seeds- 1/3 tsp

Mustard seeds- 1/3 tsp

Coconut oil- 3 tsp

Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds and fenugreek seeds. When they splutter add thinly sliced shallots, ginger, curry leaves and green chilly and fry till it is golden brown. Add turmeric and chilly powder and soaked kudam puli and saute till oil separates. Add 3/4 cup of water and cook till the sauce thickens. Add cleaned and de veined prawns, cover and cook for three to four minutes in medium flame. Finally add fresh curry leaves and a  few drops of coconut oil. Serve with rice.
