Til Prawn Curry is a magnifique and intensely flavorful seafood dish where fresh prawns are simmered in a rich, toasted sesame seed gravy. I use white sesame seeds ground with ginger, garlic, and a magnificent blend of regional spices to create a silky, aromatic sauce. This dish is a symbol of coastal comfort, especially during festive gatherings in the regional heartlands. The taste is remarkably bold—nutty, savory, and carrying a magnificent sharp fragrance from the mustard oil tempering. It is an honest and high-quality representation of heritage cooking that uses simple seeds to create powerful flavor profiles. I recommend serving it warm with steamed rice and a squeeze of fresh lemon.
