Sauteed Prawns - CKP Style

Easy- fast- tasty- popular!!!

1 lb of prawns (shrimps) - peeled and deveined)
1 tsp ginger paste
1 tsp garlic paste
1/2 tsp turmeric
3/4 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp tamarind extract
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
chopped coriander
salt to taste
oil

Marinate the shrimp with salt, turmeric, chili powder, ginger and garlic paste and the tamarind extract for about 15-20 minutes.
In a large saute pan, heat oil, fry the onions till they start to change colour. Add the prawns and quickly saute them till done- do not overcook the shrimp or they turn into rubber. That's the reason for a large saute pan...so you have space to fry the shrimp quickly.
Garnish with lots of fresh coriander. Serve and enjoy!!
