BHUNA PRAWN WITH PURI
Bhuna is the Indian equivalent of Stir frying and sauteing on medium high heat. The high heat helps meld the flavours of the spices into the vegetables or meat. Remember to keep a little water at the side whenever you try any bhuna dish to keep the dish from charring. Posting for a friend :) You can make this dish dry or add water towards the end to thin down the gravy. The recipe calls for Puri but I like it with Rotis/ Phulkas better as it is a lighter option to the deep-fried Puri .

SIMPLE PRAWN BHUNA
Bhuna is I think my favorite type of Indian curry. It has quiet a mellow delicate flavor to it. Great with rice and Naan bread. You can play with the spices a little bit to adjust it accordingly to suit your taste. Preparation time includes marinating time.

Steps:
- Drizzle some oil from the curry paste jar into a wok or large frying pan, gently heat, then add the onion. Sizzle over a low heat for 4 mins until the onion softens, then stir in the paste and cook for a few mins longer. Stir in the prawns and tomatoes, then bring to a simmer. If using raw prawns, simmer until they have changed colour and are cooked through. Season, if you like, then add the coriander just before serving with boiled rice and naan bread.

Tips:
- To make the perfect prawn bhuna, use fresh and succulent prawns. Look for prawns that are firm to the touch and have a shiny, translucent appearance.
- Marinate the prawns in a mixture of yogurt, ginger-garlic paste, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and garam masala for at least 30 minutes. This will help to infuse the prawns with flavor and make them tender.
- Use a heavy-bottomed pan or pot to cook the prawn bhuna. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the prawns from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Cook the prawn bhuna over medium heat. This will help to prevent the prawns from overcooking and becoming tough.
- Add a dollop of cream or yogurt to the prawn bhuna just before serving. This will help to make the dish creamy and rich.
- Serve the prawn bhuna with hot, fluffy puris or rice.

Prawn bhuna is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting dish to try, give prawn bhuna a try. You won't be disappointed!
