To start, wash and drain your crab meat. Season with Old bay and rest to the side.

Next, heat up your saucepan on medium heat and 1 TB of oil. Add the onions, garlic, herbs, and vegetables. Cook for 5 - 7 minutes.

Once the onions have become slightly translucent, then create a pool in the middle of the pan adding a splash of oil. Place the curry powder in the oil allowing it to darken before mixing in with the vegetables.

Afterwards, pour in the coconut milk and the rest of your seasonings (including your scotch bonnet or pepper sauce) and cover. Bring to a boil then turn the heat down to low. Allow the liquid cook down and thicken.

Finally, when the coconut milk has thickened put the crab meat in and fold into the mix. Let it simmer on low until all the flavors marry. Remove from heat and it is ready to serve.

Serve over rice or with Roti or boiled food (yam, green banana, Irish potato).
This recipe serves 2-4
