This Crab Curry with Coconut Milk recipe was sent to me by a friend named Pradeep Rajkumar from Pollachi. Crabs are one of my favorite sea foods.Myself and my husband are very font of crabs and we love crabs more than any other non-veg foods.No matter how we make it dry ,semi- gravy,chettinad crab curry it deserves a spot on your plate. The coconut milk added to this crab curry at the end of the recipe offers so much taste and flavor compared to other crab masalas. This Nandu Kulambu (crab curry) is a definite must try recipe.
