ReplyDeletethanks Asha.
ReplyDeleteI need some advise. I am not sure I know the protocol of comments. Is it polite to reply to each one (that would double the number of comments), or read and only comment on the ones that ask a question?
comments on this will be very helpful.
Hi Saju love your methi prawns. Me being a great lover of prawns never tried this unique combo!!!
ReplyDeletelove your recipe!!
waaaaaaaaaaah Saju.......I cannot eat Prawns........Am a vegan.......The curry looks delicious though :-)))
ReplyDeleteSlurp...........
This looks out of the world delicious!
ReplyDeleteSaju, I'm not Asha but here goes...do what is most comfortable to you. You could reply to all the comments in a single comment. Or you could reply to those who ask questions and a generic reply to those who have commented, again in a single comment. Do what seems right to you. Replying to comments can be very time consuming esp if you get a ton of comments. You might want to spend that time on writing posts instead! And those of us who love your recipes won't mind! :-)
ReplyDeleteAt what point do you add the ginger, garlic and green chillies? To the onions, with the methi or after you add the tomatoes? This sounds like a really easy but delicious recipe.
I loved this methi prwans :)...yummy !
ReplyDeleteSaju, Love your recipe. I've never tried this combo. Mom and Gm used to make prawns with Gongura, sorrel leaves which used to be yummy too. I should try your combo too.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for your comments.
ReplyDeleteThank you Manisha for your advice.
I have ammended the recipe to include the garlic, ginger and green chillies. They are added at the same time as the methi leaves.
Rina, I have never had sorrel, I think it taste sharp, (does it?) I must try it when I see sorrel next.
Prawn and mushrooms, what a great combo, why didn't I ever think about that... :) Love your recipes Saju..
ReplyDeleteThis one sure must have been a treat, saju! I can imagine the taste and the aroma. i am sure it will taste good even with just mushrooms! Love this recipe!
