Prawns are loved by all the sea food lovers .Baby prawn is also a tasty delicacy .Last week when we went to supermarket I saw a big packet of Dry Baby Prawns ,I immediately picked it .I love baby prawn stir fry it tastes to similar other veggie poriyal. It is because of the size of the baby prawns. Be it dry or fresh baby prawns we can follow the same method of cooking.
I usually don’t eat dry fish but this baby prawn is an exception it doesn’t taste and smell like other dry fishes .Baby Prawn is called Kooni meen in tamil.
