Clean and wash the prawns, set aside.

Heat oil in a pan, add fenugreek seeds followed by ginger-garlic paste. Saute it all for a while, at least till the aroma goes away.

Add chopped onions, fry till they turn translucent.

Now, add the red chilli, turmeric powder, fenugreek leaves and garam masala. Saute for a few minutes.

Once the masalas have blended well, add prawns.

Add whisked yogurt and stir continuously to avoid curdling.

Pour ghee on top of the curry, season with salt. Garnish with coriander leaves and ginger juliennes.
