Spicy Beer Prawns

Spicy Beer Prawns is a quick prawn starter recipe in which prawns are cooked in a beer based gravy. This mouth-watering dish has a very unique taste.

Usually on Thursday nights, I attempt something which I have never made before. Basically it is a weekend special meal 🙂 This weekend I tried these Spicy Beer Prawns and Grilled Fish. Both the dishes turned out good and we loved them.

Spicy Beer Prawns is very easy to prepare. We had it as an appetizer, but you could also serve it with the main course. I think it would also taste great with bread (Pav).

Here is the step by step recipe for Spicy Beer Prawns with pictures:
