Wow..I love crabs more than anything ,and mostly any non vegans delight.I think there is
no need of skill to cook crab,as the flavor of its meat is awesome.My mother was a
specialist in making crab curry ,and the accompanying kiri kos (raw jak
fruit kernels cooked in coconut milk)with dal makes me drool even now.Today i would like
to give you a recipe for Crab masala.This masala is good served with any type of food ,but
to spice up your boring days ,just a simple curry,rice and this masala is satiating.
For the recipe now
