About Buttered prawn

Buttered Prawn is a flavorful seafood dish originating from Asian cuisine, often associated with Malaysian, Indian, and Chinese cooking styles. This dish features succulent prawns sautéed in rich butter, garlic, and a mix of spices or curry leaves, delivering a savory and aromatic experience. Additional ingredients like chili, milk, or condensed milk may be incorporated to create a creamy or spicy variation. Prawns are a lean source of protein, rich in vitamins like B12, and minerals such as zinc and selenium, making them nutritious. However, because butter contributes significant saturated fats, the dish should be enjoyed in moderation by those mindful of their fat intake. This indulgent recipe combines vibrant flavors with the natural sweetness of fresh prawns, offering a delightful balance of taste and texture that's both satisfying and comforting.
