  • Ginger ,garlic                                         2tbspn
  • Curry leaves                                           1/2cup
  • Cardamon                                               2nos
  • Cinnamon                                               1stick
  • Chicken masala                                       1tbspn
  • Garam masala                                          1tbspn
  • Corriander powder                                   11/2tbspn
  • Chilli Powder                                            2tbspn
  • Pepper powder                                         1teaspn
  • Salt                                                            for taste
  • Tomatoes                                                   1big
  • Oil                                                             3tbspn
  • Water                                                        for cooking
Heat a pan roast up all the masalas and take its half portion and marinate the cleaned up crab and set it aside. Now heat oil in a heavy bottomed vessel and add in the onions,ginger & garlic,tomatoes and curry leaves and saute well.Once its done add in the balance masala mix to it and saute again.You may add in some water and mix well to form a paste. Then add in the crab and mix well untill all the masala gets coated on the crab.Add in salt,crushed spices and water and let it cook on a medium flame for about 15-20mins by stirring occationally. Once its done swith off the flame.This would be much tastier if we have it after a short time as only then the masalas would add more flavour for the crabs.
