Top Culinary Uses

Pro Tip: Horina prawns are delicate. To keep them tender, cook them for no more than 3–4 minutes in total. Overcooking will make the thin shells stick to the meat.

• Lau-Chingri: The classic pairing with bottle gourd, where the prawns act as a natural sweetener for the vegetable.

• Prawn Bhuna: A thick, spicy gravy with sautéed onions and tomatoes.

• Crispy Tempura: Because they are small and sweet, they are excellent for light batter frying.

Handling & Storage
