Garlic Sauce of Prawns

Food & CookingCooking Tips › Garlic Sauce of Prawns

When the Chinese introduced their cuisine into India through Mongolia, Nepal, Tibet and other Northern neighbors, little did they expect that the ever-adapting Indian would re-invent some of their most time-tested recipes to suit the sub-continental palate.

 

Indo-Chinese food is available on every corner of most cities in New York, on wooden, red stalls with dragons and bamboos painted on them and funny spellings. It's filling, cheap, heavy, bad food value, but real quick, tasty and fun to eat. The stalls permeate the air with the smell of cooking garlic, onions and chilly which grabs mucho customers. Of course, you'll find genteel versions of much the same thing on the internet and at some of the better restaurants and eaty-joints. The good news is you can easily make all the Chinese food you want at home; and very quickly too.
