Welcome to Kudla, the home of authentic Mangalorean seafood in Bangalore. Our menu is filled with dishes showcasing the rich and diverse cuisine of Mangalore, a coastal city in Karnataka known for its delicious seafood and unique blend of spices. Today, we will explore three of our delicious prawn recipies that will make your taste buds sing.

1. Prawn Ghee Roast

Prawn Ghee Roast is a classic Mangalorean dish loved for its spicy and tangy flavour. The dish is made by marinating fresh prawns in a blend of spices and then cooking them in ghee (clarified butter) until they are crispy and golden brown.

The key to making a great Prawn Ghee Roast is the spice blend. The blend typically includes dried red chilies, cumin, coriander, black pepper, fennel, and fenugreek seeds. These spices are roasted and ground into a fine powder, mixed with tamarind and jaggery to create a marinade. The prawns are then marinated in this mixture for several hours to allow the flavours to penetrate the meat.

Once the prawns are marinated, they are cooked in ghee until crispy and golden brown. Onions and tomatoes are then sautéed in the same pan to give them a tangy flavour. The prawns are then added to the pan and cooked with the onions and tomatoes until fully cooked.

At Kudla, we serve our Prawn Ghee Roast with Neer Dosa, a soft and fluffy rice pancake that complements the spicy and tangy flavours of the prawns perfectly.

2. Prawn Masala Fry
