Cajun Prawn Biryani – Cook’s Book Club May 2008

Meena, who is Hooked on Heat, has started an enticing new event – a book club for cooks. The May event features the book Serving Crazy with Curry by Amulya Malladi. The rules: read the book, comment on the book, cook something from or inspired by the book and post about it.
