Given the background description of some cooking related query, summarize the question into a title

Okay I give up, I've tried and failed about 8 times now frying prawns but they never are succulent. The recipe that I want to get done is pretty simple:De-vein. Salt the prawn for some time and allow it to marinate.Wash them. Fry them in some oil till they turn pink.Add onion, chillies, ginger, garlic. Some turmeric. Some tomatoes. The cuisine is Goan if it's of any help.This is exactly what mum does and somehow it turn out great. The only things different that I'm doing are:The original recipe uses coconut oil, I'm using sunflowerI'm using frozen prawns because i cant get hold of fresh prawns.I don't think any of this should affect the dish. Anyway, what always happens is that the prawns are either too chewy or too dry (opposite of juicy).What am I doing wrong here? How do I know if the prawns are just cooked right? Should I be using low or high heat?Any other tips for getting really juicy fried prawns?
How can I get fried prawns to be juicy?
