Notes / Tips:

Adjust the spice level as per your taste
Instead of lemon juice you can also add tamarind juice or kokam
Do not overcook the prawns or else it will turn chewy
You can also add coriander powder and Malvani powder but I have skipped it since I believe too many spices will kill the natural taste of prawns
