Sunday is the day of making a special dish for lunch. Sonny
awaits with expectations of something new, different and delicious. He
suggested a few days back, “Maa why
don’t you make a special prawn dish this Sunday?” I pondered, yes has been a
while I made a prawn dish. Went to the market in the morning to try my luck
in getting some fresh large prawns for lunch. Had come across an awesome prawn
recipe quite a few days back and was dying to give it a try. But the fish
market disappointed me. Couldn’t find any large prawn, only some stale small ones
lying with one vendor. Suddenly something caught my eye. At one corner was a
boy about fifteen years of age, selling some minnows along with some fresh
medium sized fresh water lobsters or Indian scampi heaped at one side. Walked up to him and after a good
bargain bagged a kilo of those lobsters. Though my recipe needed tiger prawns, I
couldn’t resist buying them to see how things turn out.
