How To Cook Curry Crabs?

This is my housemate and I first attempt in cooking crabs. Surprisingly the dish turned out to be good! Can't wait to have the next attempt because I secretly fell in love with eating crabs.

Recipe for Curry Crabs (Serves 2)

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes

  • 2 flower crabs
  • 1 stalk of lemongrass
  • 1 small packet of coconut milk
  • 1 onion
  • 1 packet of curry paste of your choice
  • 1 cup of water
1) Scrub the crabs with a brush if you have one or just scrub it with the scouring pad that you use to wash the dishes. (Sounds crazy... but mum kinda advise me to do so... )
2) Lift the shell crab lightly to detach it from the body and chop it into two.



3) Heat 2 tablespoon of oil.
4) Fry the onions and lemongrass till fragrant.
5) Add in the curry paste and fry till fragrant as well.
6) Add the water and coconut milk. Bring it to boil.
7) Stir in the crabs. Fry the crabs till cook.
8) Serve hot.



Give it a try!
