1. 300–350 g prawns (cleaned and deveined)
2. 1 tbsp oil
3. ½ tsp mustard seeds
4. 1 sprig curry leaves
5. 1 small onion (finely chopped)
6. 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
7. 1 small tomato (chopped or puréed)
8. ½ tsp turmeric powder
9. 1½ tsp red chilli powder
10. 1 tsp coriander powder
11. ¼ tsp garam masala
12. 1 tsp lemon juice or 1 tbsp tamarind pulp

2. Add curry leaves and chopped onion. Sauté until golden.
3. Add ginger-garlic paste and cook for 1 minute.
4. Add tomato, turmeric, chilli powder, coriander powder, and salt. Cook until the masala thickens and releases oil.
