PRAWN BALCHAO (GOAN PICKLE-STYLE HOT PRAWNS)



Prawn Balchao (Goan Pickle-Style Hot Prawns) image

This is a fiery, sweet and sour and wonderful dish from Goa. This recipe is partly taken from a friend's cookbook that she copied for me when I raved about the dish. I find that this dish is best the next day. If you don't like as much heat, cut down on the peppers and if you don't like much sour, cut the vinegar in half.

  • To prepare this scrumptious dish, in a bowl take de-veined prawn and clean it well. Season the cleaned prawn with salt and leave it aside for some time. Meanwhile, in a pan heat oil over medium flame. Once the oil is adequately heated, add in the de-veined prawns. Fry the prawns till they change colour. Turn off the heat and keep aside the prawns for further use.
  • Now, in a pan add red chillies, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, cloves and cinnamon and dry roast them for about 5 minutes until they release an aroma. Once that happens, turn off the heat and let the spices cool at room temperature.
  • Next, in a grinder add the roasted spices with ginger and garlic paste along with vinegar. Grind the ingredients together to get a fine paste.
  • Now, heat oil in pan. Once heated, add in it finely chopped onions and stir fry till they turn brown. Next add finely chopped tomatoes in the pan and fry for another 4-5 minutes. Mix in the prepared spice paste along with sugar and salt. Fry for about 5 minutes, till the time oil starts leaving the pan.
