Shrimps -- Pepper Stir Fry

This is a very quick and easy recipe. I made this within 45 minutes. My Hus had work even today (supposed to be a holiday). I was in a hurry to complete lunch as my son was forcing me now and then to spend time with him. The best part is that I made this without any prior searching, on my own way. But came out successful.




Ingredients:

Shrimps 400g
Pepper Powder 1.5 tsp or acc. to your taste
Chilli Powder 1/4 tsp
Tomato (small) 1
Onion (Medium) 1
Ginger - Garlic Paste 1 tbsp
Aniseeds 1/8 tsp
Salt
Oil

Preparation:


Clean shrimps. Dice Tomatoes and chop Onions.

Method:


Add 3/4 tsp Pepper Powder to the shrimps. Mix well and keep it aside for 30 minutes.

Heat Oil in a Pan. When hot, add Aniseeds. Allow it to crackle. Now add chopped Onions. Fry till they turn slightly brown.

Now add diced Tomatoes. Fry for a while and then add marinated shrimps, 3/4 tsp Pepper Powder, Chilli Powder and Salt. Stir well and cook till done.

Serves: 2
Serve with Rice or Chapati.


Notes: Need not add water. Shrimps get cooked with the water let out by the Tomatoes and itself. If more gravy is needed, water can be added.
