About Prawn sauce

Prawn sauce is a versatile condiment or ingredient made primarily from prawns, often blended with oil, spices, herbs, and sometimes tomatoes or garlic, depending on the recipe. Popular in Southeast Asian and Mediterranean cuisines, it adds a rich, savory flavor to dishes, making it ideal for stir-fries, pasta, or as a dipping sauce. Nutritionally, prawn sauce can be a source of protein and essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids found in seafood. However, its healthfulness depends on the preparation—versions high in added salt, sugar, or oil may not be ideal for those watching their sodium or calorie intake. Homemade prawn sauce offers the advantage of controlling ingredients for a lighter, nutrient-dense option. Known for its bold umami flavor, prawn sauce is both a flavorful addition and a symbol of culinary fusion in many global dishes.
