Prawn Roast Recipe | Spicy Prawn Roast

I am actually happy to have a good start with prawn. This is the second recipe i am posting on prawn. Everyone at home used to have prawn as a starter. So mostly  will never get a chance to taste it, as I will be busy preparing the main course for lunch. This time, I made it at last and finally relished it. Its truly delicious. These prawns will satisfy your seafood desire.
