One of my BIGGEST reasons to visit GOA has always been the love for relishing Masala Crab Fry Goan Style at the ever so popular Calangute Beach Restaurant called Souza Lobo.
This time again on a recent visit I visited Souza Lobo and relished this delicious crab recipe.
Last year when I tried to replicate this recipe of Crab Xec Xec instead of Masala Crab Fry.
The most unique ingredient I realised was in Goan Food recipes is the Coconut Toddy Vinegar which I smartly purchased from Mapusa Market and it was a Home made one.
After having returned to Navi Mumbai, I really wanted to recreate this recipe at home and I did the same successfully for dinner yesterday.
In today's blog post, I am going to describe this unique Crab Recipe-Goan style.
Ingredients Required:
7. Cloves - 5 - 6
Method of Preparation:
1. Soak the ingredients from 2 - 9 in half cup Toddy vinegar for about 2 hours.(Best Overnight)
2. Thereafter make a fine paste in a wet masala grinder. ( You can always store the excess masala paste in the refrigerator for later use in other sea food preparations. It has vinegar which is a preservative)
3. Marinate the Cleaned and cut crabs in salt, turmeric and chill powder for about 1 hour in the refrigerator.
5. Soak the tamarind ball in warm water to turn it into fine pulp.
7. Add finely chopped onions and cook over medium flame till the onions turns dark brown.
8. Then, Add the marinated crabs and stir fry slowly over medium heat for over 5 minutes.
9. Add the Masala paste ( red colour) to the crabs and continue to stir fry.
10. Check for salt and add sugar and tamarind pulp.
11. Cook the crabs till the paste and crab water turns semi dry and oil begins to separate.
SERVING SUGGESTION: Best Crab relishing experience when had with Chilled Beer
