Easy Goan Crab Sukkem | Crabs in Coconut Masala

Crab meat possesses a burst of flavour all by itself— it is subtly sweet with the vibrant taste of the sea captured in its soft, white flesh! This Goan Crab Sukkem is, therefore, a perfect recipe to let the flavour of the crab shine and be sufficiently appreciated. This dry recipe uses coconut which enhances the taste of the crab itself while also providing a rugged texture against the soft, yet firm flesh. Also, when it comes to sucking the meat off the body and legs, the simple spices make this easy dish seem exquisite :)
