Oh, that's great Praju! never tried with dry prawns. Thanks!
I had never mixed vegetables with prawns before,
maybe because of living in Chennai or because I am basically from Palakkad.
Anyway I am going to try it out soon. I was going through your recipes lissie and they look very tasty and delicious. Nice Blog
