Shrimps Curry/ Sungata Ghasi Recipe
Its a tradition in Mangalore to eat fish on Diwali day and my in-laws follow this religiously. Where as at my mom's place we are strict vegetarians on this auspicious day and we dont even eat onion and garlic. This diwali was first diwali after my marriage, so had to keep up both the tradition. That's when Pr and I came out with this idea. He had sungata ghasi and I ate substituting cooked potatoes ;) instead of shrimps.
