My Spicy Crabs

Looking at these yummy crabs, you must be having butterflies in your stomach.

Now you can easily prepare this at home without much of a hassle.

Crabs are such delicious sea food! The flesh is so tender and tasty! If you get them fresh from the seaside that's even better! But my crabs were from the seafood shop! :)

1st step: Wash the crabs properly. Now take 2 separate bowls, One for boiling the body ( that have more flesh hence boil easily) & 1 for the legs(as they are hard and need more time to boil)....& boil in microwave high heat. Boil the bodies for 4-5 min and the legs for around 8 minutes.

2nd step: Throw the water. ...this will bring a nice orangish colour in your crabs.

3rd step: Take 2 Tsp of oil in a frying pan. Fry the mixture of 2 big onions, 8-9 garlic pods.fry till oil separates.

3th step : Add tomato puree ( if fresh then take 5 big tomatoes and make puree out of it).

4th step: At this juncture when tomato is getting cooked add 1 tsp of turmeric powder, 2 tsp full of red chilly powder and salt according to your taste.

5th step:Add the crabs now and cook nicely for another 15 mins in medium flame so that all the spices go inside.

6th step:Now add around 1 cup of water and let the whole thing boil. Cook till the gravy 
becomes thick in consistency.

7th step: before putting the pan out of gas oven..add a big tablespoon of ghee and 1 Tsp of Good aromatic Garam masala. 

Lastly turn off the flame and keep it covered for minimum 10 mins before serving.

The crabs are now ready!
