Shrimp Varuval, also known as Prawn Varuval or Eral Varuval in Tamil, is a popular and spicy South Indian stir-fried shrimp dish. "Varuval" refers to a dry fry or roast, and as such, the final dish has a dry, thick coating of spices rather than a watery gravy. It's known for its rich flavors and is a staple in many South Indian homes.
