Chennai, formerly known as Madras, is one of the major metropolitan cities of India. Some miles away on a well-built state highway is Mamallapuram, which is also known as Mahabalipuram. This place is famous for its ancient carved stone temples. I once drove down there on a day trip after doing a show in Chennai to relish a bit of India’s rich heritage. This shrimp preparation is a souvenir of that short visit years ago.
