Tawa Jhinga (Tawa Prawn)

Tawa Jhinga (Tawa Prawn) is a bold and flavorful coastal-style prawn dish that captures the essence of Indian tawa cooking. Fresh prawns are marinated in a blend of spices, including chili, turmeric, and coriander, then pan-seared on a sizzling griddle to lock in their natural sweetness. The prawns are tossed with sautéed onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers, creating a vibrant, smoky medley of textures and aromas. Finished with a squeeze of lemon and fresh cilantro, this dish delivers a zesty, spicy, and slightly charred flavor profile. Tawa Jhinga pairs perfectly with naan or basmati rice for a truly satisfying seafood experience.
