Here is a very easy everyday side dish that can be put together in minutes. This spicy prawn ghee roast goes so well as a side dish for lunch with rice and curry. Here is how to do prawn ghee roast.
First we will grind the masala. Take all the masala ingredients in a mixie and grind it to a smooth paste. No need to add water while grinding. Set aside.
Take a pressure cooker and add in the sliced onions, ground masala, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, salt, oil and 3 tablespoon of water. Cover the pan and cook for 7 minutes on medium flame. Remove from heat and wait for the pressure to release. The masala is ready. If the masala is watery, simmer the mixture for 2-3 minutes, so it becomes like a thick gravy. Set aside.
Note: 2 or 3 liter pressure cooker recommended as bigger cooker tends to burn at the bottom. If using bigger cooker, add 2-3 tablespoon of water extra while cooking to avoid burning at the bottom.
Take a pan (preferably non-stick) and add in the cooked masala and the cleaned prawns. Add in two teaspoon of ghee and the curry leaves. Saute the mixture on medium flame for 5 minutes.
Add in two more teaspoon of ghee and roast till the prawn is completely cooked and the masala is dry.
