About Goan prawn

Goan Prawn Curry is a traditional dish from Goa, India, renowned for its bold flavors and tropical influences. This seafood delicacy typically features fresh prawns simmered in a rich, aromatic coconut-based gravy spiced with turmeric, red chili, garlic, ginger, and exotic blends of Goan masalas. Often accompanied by steamed rice, it balances the sweetness of coconut with the tanginess of tamarind. Prawns are a lean source of protein and packed with essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin B12, and selenium, which support heart health and brain function. The curry’s use of spices offers antioxidant properties and metabolic benefits. However, portions should be mindful of coconut milk's saturated fat and overall sodium content. When prepared with minimal oil, it can be a satisfying and nutritious meal rooted in flavorful Indian coastal cuisine.
