How to Make Goan Kismur

Dry prawn kismur is a popular dish in Goa, which is served along with rice. It is a day to day dish in every house like the Chutney’s used in South Indian homes.

I just fell in love with Kismur the moment I had the Goan Thali meals and decided to make it as soon as I got back home.
