Jerra Prawn - جیرا جھینگا

Introduction

Large Prawns, locally known as Jheenga, are a must-have for seafood lovers. With their juicy bite, clean flavor, and satisfying size, they’re perfect for everything from family dinners to weekend BBQs. Whether you’re frying, grilling, or making a desi-style curry — these prawns hold their own.

Source & Quality

Our large prawns are professionally cleaned and processed, sourced from coastal regions of Pakistan. They’re handled with care to preserve freshness and deliver quality that stands out in every dish.

Quantity Per Kg

You’ll typically get 28 to 40 prawns per kilogram, depending on their size — making them ideal for family-style meals or sharing platters.

Cutting & Prep Options

All variants are available fully cleaned and ready-to-cook.

Cooking Ideas

• Grilled: With herbs or masala, they get a smoky finish
• Fried: Crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside
• Curried: They soak up spices beautifully and add depth to any gravy

Taste & Texture

Expect a mild, slightly sweet flavor with a firm, juicy texture. These prawns stay tender after cooking and pair well with both light herbs and bold desi spices.

Storage Tips

Keep them refrigerated and use within 2–3 days. For longer storage, freezing is a great option — they’ll retain their quality if sealed well.

Ideal Pairings

• Garlic, lemon, butter, or light green chutney
• Served alongside steamed rice, naan, or grilled veggies

How to Identify Fresh Prawns

• Firm texture with no sogginess
• Glossy shells and a neutral sea-like smell
• Avoid anything with discoloration or a strong odor

Clean & Safe Choice

These prawns are cleaned, deveined, and handled professionally, offering quality you can trust. They’re a solid pick for regular meals — light, flavorful, and easy to cook.
