Make a long silt at the back of the peeled prawns and remove the dirt found.

02. Cereal Prawn Flavouring: Add 5 tablespoons of cereal to the cereal prawn flavouring and mix evenly.
03. Chilli Preparation: Wash the chillies, create an insertion along the chilli's length, remove the seeds and cut the chilli into thinner round slices. Be careful not to use your bare hands in this preparation if you are sensitive to the chilli seeds. It might cause your fingers to be feel heat later on.
04. Prawn Frying: Add some oil and lightly fry the all prawns until it has turn orange, you should not over cook the prawns as it needs to be cooked further later with the cereals prawn flavouring. Take note not to under cook as well, once cereal prawn flavouring are added, it will be difficult to cook the prawns and maintain the cereal's crispiness.
05. Cooking: Add the butter and fry the curry leaves. After 1 minute or so, once the curry leaves fragrance is detected, add cut chillies. After 1 minute or so, add prawns and lightly fry for about 30 seconds. Finally, add the cereal prawn flavouring in and stir fry for another 2 minutes. Once done, it is ready to be served!!
