This is a very spicy shrimp fry and one of Nellore Dist speciality. spices like cinnanon and corriander won't be dominating the shrimp flavour.
Back in India cast iron wok is used to prepare this kind of curries.I think Cooking in cast iron gives it more flavour. I made this in a cast iron skillet and it came out so good.
