Instagram Craze and Grilled Ajwaini Prawns

GRILLED AJWAINI PRAWNS
Hiii

INSTAGRAM CRAZE
Its been a crazy last few days...Our employee who helps out with our orders for our e-commerce website decided to go on a long leave, so you can obviously imagine the chaos..Amidst all of that I suddenly got crazy about INSTAGRAM..yes I know the rest of the world has been doing it for years now and I have just started.. So to put it all together I am either working or I am instagramming (I don't think this word even exists lol)..

And obviously there is absolutely no time to cook, still I cannot just cannot have something not favourable on my palate even on those days!! Since I was craving for some prawns the other day N got me some. Since He is allergic to sea-food I had to think of an alternative food also along with the prawns.

So I decided to make something which is SUPER FAST and SUPER EASY and the same ingredients can be used for making Paneer. So here it is



GRILLED AJWAINI PRAWNS (or PANEER)

Marinated Prawns
1. Marinate the Prawns with Salt for around half an hour


2. In a separate bowl take all the other ingredients (except the Refined Oil) and Mix very well


3. Spread over the prawns and mix with hand so that all the prawns are properly covered with the marinade.


Lightly Fry the Prawns
