Prawn Uttapam Using Meamo Meats Fresh Water Prawns

Looking for a perfect sunday breakfast? The only thing I would recommend is a good prawn uttapam. For this recipe, I've used fresh water prawns, it's much larger and meatier, when cooked with aromatic spices and ingredients, these prawns absorb all the flavors and the taste is excellent. Make sure not to over cook the prawns as it may turn out to be chewy.
