There are many iconic Indian curries that feature seafood. The one that made it to Taste Atlas' list was none other than the popular Bengali delicacy, Chingri Malai Curry. The official website of the guide explains the key components of this flavourful prawn curry: "It's made with a base of coconut milk and prawns that are seasoned with garam masala spices and fried in ghee or mustard oil with onions, hot chilli peppers, garlic-ginger paste, and turmeric. If desired, red chilli powder, cinnamon, sugar, and cardamom can be added to the curry in order to further enrich the flavours. The dish is cooked until the gravy becomes thick and creamy."
