About Tawa prawns

Tawa Prawns is a flavorful seafood dish originating from Indian cuisine, known for its bold spices and quick preparation on a flat griddle (tawa). Made with fresh prawns marinated in a mix of turmeric, red chili powder, garlic, ginger, and tangy lime juice, the dish is then sautéed with onions, tomatoes, and aromatic spices like cumin and coriander. Packed with protein and low in calories, prawns are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals like selenium and zinc, which support heart health and immunity. The minimal use of oil during preparation helps retain its health benefits, but moderation is key for those monitoring cholesterol. Rich in vibrant flavors and nutrients, Tawa Prawns is a wholesome dish that pairs well with whole wheat bread or fresh salad for a balanced meal.
