Step 2.

Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a deep pan and add 1 finely chopped onion, when it turn slightly brown in colour, add 1/4 tsp of turmeric, 1 tsp of G & G paste and fry it until it loses its raw smell.

Step 3.

Now add 3 whole crabs and give a quick stir and cook for few minutes in oil, then add 2 tsp of chilli powder and salt a bit more than normal curries as it will be with shell we need to use more masala so that meat will absorb masala.

Step 4.

Now its time to add water till crab is dissolved in masala as you can see in the picture below.

Step 5.

Now add 1/2 tsp of Coriander Powder, 1/2 tsp of Garam Masala and mix it well and bring it to boil and take off from heat.

Step 6.

Crab should be in gravy for 2 or 3 hours so that they dissolve in masala and flavours will infuse to crab by this time, then Re-heat it and have it hot.
