Goan Crab Claw Curry Recipe

Origin: India      Period: Traditional

If you can't find crab claws (they're available in most oriental supermarkets) you can substitute prawns in this dish.

Ingredients

500g crab claws (or prawns), washed and drained
3 tbsp tamarind paste dissolved in 60ml hot water (or 2 tsp tamarind purée)
250ml coconut milk
1 medium onion, roughly chopped
4 garlic cloves, peeled
4cm length of ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
3 dry red chillies
1 tsp poppy seeds
1 tsp ground coriander seeds
1 tsp powdered cumin
salt to taste
chopped coriander leaves to garnish

Goan Crab Claw Curry Preparation:


Method:

Dry roast the poppy seeds in a non-stick frying pan for a few minutes then add to 3 tbsp water to soak for 20 minutes. Then add the poppy seeds along with the onion, garlic, ginger, chillies, coriander, cumin and salt to a blender. Blend to a smooth purée (add a little water if needed). This is your basic curry paste.

Heat oil in a wok and use to fry the curry paste until the mixture splits and the oil separates. Add-in the crab claws (or prawns) and stir to combine. Add the tamarind a little at a time (it can be very sharp so add to your own taste) then stir-in the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a boil.

Continue cooking for a few minutes, until the crab claws are thoroughly heated through. Adjust the seasoning (salt and chilli powder) then garnish with the coriander leaves and serve with plain boiled rice.
