Surf and Turf With Shrimp and Sausage Skewers#FishFriday

This is a combo of seafood and sausage. While this marriage of surf and turf, is not new, this combo skewers is paired with Merlot, a perfect cozy dinner.

Ingredients
2 Large Cooked Pork Sausages - cut into thick slices
For the Shrimp Marination
250 Grams Jumbo Shrimps/Prawns- peeled, tails on
¼ Teaspoon Turmeric
1 Teaspoon Lemon Juice
1 Teaspoon Red chilly powder
¼ Teaspoon Garam Masala powder
¼ Teaspoon Shahjeera/Caraway seeds- coarsely ground
1 Big Clove Garlic - grated
Salt to taste
1 - 2 Tablespoons Oil

Method
Mix all the ingredients for the marination well, then add the shrimp, and toss to coat well. Leave it in the refrigerator for 15 - 20 minutes.
In the Meanwhile let's get the sausage ready
In a large saucepan bring the water to a boil. Add the sausage slice, cook over high flame for 5 minutes or till they plum. Drain and pat dry. Let cool.
Take a wooden skewer, skewer thread in the tail end of the shrimps and then tuck in the sausage and the other end of the shrimp, the sausage should be tightly tucked between the shrimp. Like the same way tuck in another shrimp and sausage. In one skewer tuck two shrimps only.
Using more skewers, repeat with the remaining shrimp and sausage till all are skewered.
Heat a grill a pan with oil and place the skewers on it and cook on high flame for exactly 3 minutes on each side ( if you cook for more time the shrimps will be rubbery and not juicy) turning once or twice, until charred spots appear. 
Serve immediately on a bed of lettuce.
How I enjoyed these skewers, took a lettuce leaf added a sausage and shrimps in it
made a parcel and enjoyed with sip of wine.
They were a perfect combo..  a tasty appetizer.

Prawn Patio#FishFriday

Prawn Patio, its a traditional Parsi dish which is not only spicy but sweet and sour too. Patio is a dish that was brought from Persia by Parsi who settled in India. Patio means hot, sweet and sour in equal measure.
Am, a big fan of Parsi cuisine so, tried this dish and it was really tasty, it is very different from our curries .Usually we do not add jaggery or sugar to our non-veg dishes but this curry has jaggery in it but still we all liked the taste and the aroma of this dish which goes well with rice.
Ingredients
½ Kg Cleaned Prawns
1 Tablespoons Heaped Thick Tamarind paste
3 Medium Onion-finely chopped
3 -4 Tablespoons Oil
2 Medium Tomatoes - finely chopped
2 Teaspoons Jaggery
2 Small Potatoes - cubed
Coriander leaves for garnishing 
For The Masala
2 Tablespoons Coriander leaves
4 Green chillies
6 -7 Dry Kashmiri Red Chillies
2 Sticks Cinnamon(1"piece each)
4 Cardamoms
6 Cloves
8 Black Peppercorns
1 Tablespoon Coriander seeds
1 Teaspoon Cumin seeds
1"Piece Ginger-
6 Big Cloves Garlic

Method 
Mix jaggery with tamarind pulp and keep aside.
Wash clean and devein the prawns.
Grind all the ingredients under masala, adding little water as possible to make a fine thick paste. 
In a heavy bottom pan/kadai heat oil, add onion and fry till translucent, then add tomatoes and fry for a minute.
Add the ground masala paste, and the wash the blender jar with ½ cup water and add that too, sauté well till oil separates. Add the potato cubes and let them cook.  Now add tamarind-jaggery pulp and sauté again for a minute, add water as required to make a thick gravy, add salt to taste. Let this cook till oil surfaces, taste for salt, sourness and sweetness, add accordingly, give this a nice mix. Now add the prawns, cover the pan with a lid and cook on a medium low flame for 5 minutes. 
The gravy should be thick and saucy. 
Serve hot with rice, paratha or crusty bready.. Enjoy!!
My Notes
You can adjust the spices according to your taste, but, do not skip adding jaggery and tamarind, as these two are most important ingredients which give the authentic taste to the dish.
