Deccan Prawns


Deccan plateau is a region located in South India. This region is famous for its variety of spices and its ready assimilation into the food of its inhabitants. Chillies which are available in plenty here in many shapes and colours are used to flavour almost anything here. This seafood recipe which embodies the flavour of South India - chewy texture on the outside with a rich spiced soft core - is typical of the Deccan region which also has long coast lines on both sides.


Spices are indispensable ingredients in traditional Indian food. They are even used as preservatives, aphrodisiacs and in traditional eastern medicine. Spices add taste,flavour,aroma,colour and "bite" - pungency to our food.


Spices are derived from some part of a plant - flowers, fruits, leaves, seeds, rhizomes, roots, buds and even the bark of a tree. They are sorted,dried and packed for eventual use in the Kitchen. Remember that they have a short shelf life. For more information about these little but powerful ingredients.
