Prawns pulav is a simple and an easy dish to prepare within minutes. I made this within 30 minutes before going out as I had marinated prawns kept in the freezer for frying. To avoid consuming too much of oil if fried stuff, I thought of an easy way to have this marinated prawns and it came out perfect.
The perfect blend of spices and the flavors of prawns combined in rice makes this a very tasty and yummy pulav which each and every prawn lover would love to try.
Poppy seeds will be always there in my kitchen as I like to add them in chicken or egg gravy. Just take a spoonful and grind along with tomatoes or anything that goes well with it.
