Flower Prawns

“Flower prawns,” also known as “gulf prawns” or “banana prawns,” are appreciated for their sweet flavor and tender texture. In Tamil cuisine, they are commonly used in various dishes, including curries, stir-fries, and as a filling in snacks.

These prawns are often marinated with spices like turmeric, chili powder, and ginger-garlic paste before cooking. They can be prepared in a coconut-based curry or simply sautéed with garlic and herbs for a quick dish.
