About Prawn madras

Prawn Madras is a flavorful South Indian curry that originates from the Tamil Nadu region. It features succulent prawns simmered in a spicy, rich sauce made from tomatoes, onions, coconut milk, and aromatic spices such as turmeric, cumin, coriander, and curry leaves. This dish is known for its deep, bold flavors and distinct heat, making it popular among lovers of spicy cuisine. Prawns are a nutritious protein source, low in calories and fat, and rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health. The use of coconut milk adds creaminess but also contributes saturated fat, so portion control is key. This dish may be high in sodium depending on preparation, making homemade versions ideal for managing salt content. Prawn Madras is often served with steamed rice or flatbreads, completing a well-rounded meal that satisfies both the palate and nutritional needs when eaten in moderation.
