Crab Masala

Crabs Curry is all time favorite, this is a mouth watering, finger licking, delicious and simple to make. My Mother In Law was making this everytime when we godown to Mulky,Mangalore (Karnataka). In mulky we get fresh fish and alive crabs. My MIL is to clean the alive crabs in Mulky and cook and serve her children.
