Ingredients:
10 red chilies
1 tbsp coriander seeds
1/2 tbsp peppercorns
2 egg whites
10 sprigs of curry leaves
1 pod garlic, crushed
1/2 tsp turmeric powder

Directions:
1. Prepare the masala paste: Grind the red chilies, coriander seeds, and peppercorns into a fine paste.
2. Marinate the prawns: Mix the prawns with the prepared paste, salt, and turmeric powder. Set aside.
3. Prepare the garlic and curry leaves: Crush the garlic pods with a pestle.
