Clean the crabs and remove the shell. Break off the large

ones or two pieces if they
are small.
Soak the tamarind in 3 tablespoons of hot water for 10
minutes. Strain and
reserve the liquid.
Heat oil and fry the cumin seeds and onion until soft. Add
turmeric and red chili
powder and mix. Then add the tomato paste and cook for 4
minutes. Now add the
green chili, garlic, salt, chopped tomato and then crab
pieces. Mix well. Cover the
pan and cook over low heat for 5 minutes. Then add the
tamarind liquid and cook
for 20 minutes or until the crab is cooked. Garnish with
chopped cilantro.
