Crab green curry Maharashtrian style
This is a Maharashtrian dish that I had in Koli festivals and fancied making. It is cooked in a green paste that contains coriander leaves, green chilies, and freshly grated coconut apart from the Maharashtrian garam masala which is composed of a variety of whole spices.
