I love curry! I’m sure that isn’t a surprise to many of you who have followed me on this blog as I have shared countless curry recipes. Crab curry is one of my absolute favorites.
Ingredients
- 1 tsp geera(cumin)
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 1 tbsp crushed garlic
- 1 tbsp chopped thyme
- 4 tbsp water
- 3 tbsp oil
- 1 medium onion
- 1 hot pepper
- 4 cups water
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 scallion, finely chopped
- 1 ½ cup coconut milk
- 2 lbs crab
- Make a curry paste by mixing the geera, garam masala, garlic, thyme and water in a small bowl. In a large pot over medium high heat, add oil. When the oil is hot add curry paste and stir. Lower the heat to medium and cook for 5-7 minutes until the curry darkens.
- Add onion and stir fry for 2 minutes or until the onion softens. Add pepper, water, coconut milk and salt and bring to a boil. Add crab and cook until the sauce thickens. When the sauce is thick, turn off the stove and stir in scallion.
- Tips* I used snow crab for this recipe but you can use your favorite crab. Fresh or frozen works well. I cut the snow crab legs in half and cracked the claws so that the meat will be flavored with the sauce.
