- Crab Curry | Perima's Kitchen Recipe!
An authentic spicy crab curry has to be full of flavor with an abundance of mouth watering gravy. The crab meat is sweet and if prepared correctly the flavor of the gravy will infuse into the meat enhancing the deliciousness of the delectable and succulent crab meat.
Preparation of the crab:
2kgs crab ( XL Crab) Please ask your fish monger to cut and clean the crab and very importantly, to give the crab a bit of a bash, so the cracked shells allow the gravy to seep into the crab meat. Give your crab a thorough wash to remove any small pieces of shell.
Ingredients:
2 kgs Crab (Large or XL)
Half a cup of oil
2 tsp Mustard seeds
2 tsp Methi seeds
2 tsp of Crushed ginger & garlic
2tsp of Cumin/Jeera powder or roasted jeera seeds
2 Large onions
6 Green chillies
2 Stems of curry leaves
7 tbs of Masala (I used Nagiah's EveryDay Masala, Extra Hot. Alternatively, use a mix of 3 tbs Masala and 2 tbs chilli powder and dry spices).
8 large Tomatoes
2 to 3 tbs of Tamarind
1 bunch of Fresh dhania (coriander)
Cloves of garlic
Salt
Perima’s top tip: in a separate pot heat up some oil, fry fresh curry leaves 🍃 & then add 1.5 tsp of Kashmiri chilli powder. Drizzle all over the curry, simmer for 5mins & then garnish with fresh coriander.

Wonderful Raisah & such a pleasure. We can’t wait for your feedback ♥️🌶
Have to try this crab curry😍😁😁😁😁😁
Levashnie Govender thank you so much ❤️🌶 Give it a go, it’s a winner! Happy cooking ❤️🌶
So I tried this recipe before I could get a hold of my mom since she was unavailable to assist me .....and it was so delish! Thank you for sharing in fact it is similar to my moms. The only difference is she blends the onion up too. Due to the family not liking the slices of onion in the gravy... the methi seeds gives the curry a lovely edge. I learned a new trick😉....I would love to share one of my twists .... I added a packet of tomato paste/puree to deepen the tomato flavor and sprinkled a dash of sugar when I added my tamarind to give the curry a tangy taste. I'm so grateful for your channel and I wish you success it's like having a second mom on standby when you in doubt. Sending you love and light from sasha
Dear Sasha 💕 messages like these just melts my heart. Thank you for the great suggestions 👌🏼💫 I’m so happy you are enjoying the recipes & remember I’m only a message away if you need me. Lots of love ❤️ Solina
Hi
Looks delicious. I want to try it and see if I can beat my wife's crab curry taste.Thank you for you great videos
Awww 🥰 thank you so much Poobalan. This is definitely a winning recipe.... I’m sure your wife will really enjoy it too but remember a happy wife is more important.... her recipe is unbeatable 🥰😅😉

Thank you for sharing your recipe with us. Looks delicious and makes me homesick.
Will try your recipe with Alaskan crab in US.
By the way your daughter did great with editing the video.
Blessings to you and your family.
🙌🙌🙌🥰🥰🥰
Thank you so much Tash! This is our very first video so it means so much 💕 yes 🙌🏽 would love to see that if you try it. Please send DM me the pictures on Instagram. Love ❤️ Solina
Hey Sols, top video. Well done. I'm gonna try your crab curry 1 of these days. Hopefully sooner than later. Nice variation with seeds in the beginning.
Thank you so much ♥️🌶 You will get more flavor when you dry fry the methi seeds first. It’s makes a big difference. It can be bitter but when cooked correctly it has a nutty & sweet taste and will give your curry a depth of flavor.
I'm enjoying your recipes, thanks
Thank you so much ♥️🌶 We will be uploading another one soon. Happy cooking.
Looks absolutely devine
Thank you Loshnee 💕🥰

Hi we all love crab curry, cooked right though
Hi
Looks divine!!!!
Thank you Vigum 🙌🏽❤️🥰
Wow used your recipe in Dubai, had all the peeps licking their elbows was amazing 👏 thank you
Yay Reagan 🔥🙌🏽🥰🥳 you made my day 🥰♥️
Getting crab in Cape Town is a mission, I just managed to hook up about 4 XL crabs today so will be trying this recipe on Wednesday. Are the crabs in durbs fresh or frozen and does it matter a great deal?
Wow 🤩 4 XL ...what a treat. Usually fresh but frozen shouldn’t make a huge difference. This video was our first one, very amateur, so hope you get all the important points. You definitely have to increase the proportion of the ingredients used to the amount of crab. Happy cooking ❤️🌶
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Hi guys love crab curry anyone want to invite me to have some of their crab curry. 😢
Thank you for this awesome video. Can I substitute tomato puree for fresh tomatoes?
Yes fresh tomato 🍅 are the best

You’re welcome ☺️
I was a bit lost as to what masala to add? Any masala? Or what main spices do I need instead of the masala mix?
Thank you. 🤗
Pleasure 🥰
Hi Want to know what masala did you use
I used B.Nagiah’s everyday masala but please adjust the the quantity being cooked. Also check the drop down description. Love Solina ❤️
Must the crab be fried
Brings out the flavour
hey... where is that wonderful vibey video you had on CZcams... definitely exciting and classy.... this one is ok
Hope you enjoy all my content 🥰
No not in S. Africa live in the UK. Can you please tell me the name of the spice so I can research it.
Hi Shirley, can you pls send me a direct message on instagram & I will revert. Hopefully I can help. All my links are in the drop down description of every video. Love & regards ❤️🌶 Solina

Donnavan Govender Hi, Donavan - I purchase all my seafood & meat from B Nagiah’s. They have branches in Durban, Johannesburg & Cape Town ❤️🌶 Happy cooking & I hope you enjoy your crab curry! 🥰😋
