About Fresh prawns

Fresh prawns are a popular seafood choice known for their mild, slightly sweet flavor and firm texture. Native to coastal regions worldwide, prawns are a cornerstone of many cuisines, including Mediterranean, Asian, and Caribbean dishes. Rich in high-quality protein, they are a great option for supporting muscle growth and repair. Prawns are naturally low in fat and calories, making them a nutrient-dense choice for health-conscious diets. They are an excellent source of selenium, iodine, vitamin B12, and omega-3 fatty acids, which promote heart health, brain function, and strong immunity. However, some prawns may contain cholesterol, so individuals managing cholesterol levels should monitor their portions. When served without heavy sauces or added salt, fresh prawns provide a wholesome addition to meals, offering versatility in salads, stir-fries, curries, or grilled dishes. Ensure proper preparation and hygiene to fully enjoy their nutritional benefits.
