Chettinad Crab Masala Recipe


I still remember,when I was a kid I really had a great feast with my lovely parents and siblings at my ever unforgettable childhood home. My father is great cook.

I love crab legs. My kids craving crab legs too. They love getting dirty,mess and digging out every last morsel of crab meat with their bare hands. I always love to cook crab varuval. It's really giving some peppery flavours. This time, I cooked Chettinad crab masala with red dry gravy. It's really an authentic recipe to satisfied with plain white rice...
