kolumbi fry

I finally found my kolumbi fry recipe. If anybody has been following my blog, I had earlier written about my quest for this recipe I had tried. Read here for details if you havn't read it before. Yesterday I got a great deal for shrimp at my local grocery store and my craving for that recipe came back. So I googled and googled and googled some more.. Tried all sorts of search string.. kolambi fry, shrimp masala, manglorean shrimp fry, shrimp fry, shrimp snack, marvan shrimp fry, marvan shrimp curry, dry shrimp masala.. no success! Then I thought I should include some of the ingredients in my search and sure indeed I hit jackpot!! I remembered that my recipe used only dry spices and one of the spices was Asafoetida. Searching "shrimp kolambi asafoetida" got me my page!! Here is the link to the recipe and just in case I can't find this site again I have written out the recipe too. I will definitely try this recipe tonight and post a picture.
