Chingri Bharta -Shrimp Mash-up

 


Everyone out here is making use of the opportunity of the 4th of July holiday to travel somewhere except us. My hubby is stuck in this weird project which keeps Go-live during the summer time only when you want to travel places and hence he doesn't have any holiday tomorrow and in the next few weeks. It is extremely frustrating really.
 
 
Last week I was really busy between my course work and freelance projects with hardly any time left for cooking and so I cooked this easy Chingri Bharta or Shrimp Mash Up that gets ready within 15 minutes sharp and the taste is just supremely divine. Hope you people will like it.

ü  6 garlic cloves

ü  1 tsp turmeric powder

ü  Salt to taste

Method:

1) Rub turmeric powder and salt on shrimps and fry them till golden brown in color. Take them off the flame and keep aside.
