Crab curry /Nandu Masala

Made this awesome Nandu curry. Had postponed this recipe for too long now and had to try it today.
Turned to be much easier and quicker than I had expected.

Ingredients
-------------
Nandu /Snow Crab- 1lb
Onions -2 medium - finely chopped - as small as possible
Tomatoes - 1 1/2 medium -finely chopped
Ginger Garlic paste - 3 tbps
Turmeric powder
Chilli powder - 2 tbsp
Cumin powder -1 tbsp
Corriander powder - 1tbsp
Any packet mutton masala -me used MDH / Garam masala
Coconut - 1 cup


Wash the crabs , break it up , coat it with turmeric powder and allow it to set.

Use a big enough vessel to fit the crabs in. Fry onions and once browned add tomatoes.
Then add the ginger garlic paste.
Once the mixture comes together well, add a little water and add the turmeric powder , cumin powder, corriander powder and chilli powder and the mutton masala powder
Allow the powders to mix well with onion-tomatoes. Close the lid tell that is done.

Now add the crabs, coat it well and add 1 cup water. Add more water so that crabs sink in.
Close the lid and allow the crab to cook for 15 mins, stirring in-between.
The curry should start leaving oil by now.
Add the ground coconut and allow it cook for another 5 mins.
The curry is done. Garnish with cilantro and serve. Goes well with Idly/Rice.

It actually tastes better when it is a day old.
Also, add a spoon of ghee just before serving with rice.
