2. Add the minced garlic and ginger. Continue to fry till fragrant.
3. Add the chopped tomatoes and cook till it becomes like a paste. Add a little water if it is too dry.
4. Mix the curry powder, chili powder and tumeric powder with 100 ml water and make a paste.
5. Add into the pot and continue to fry till oil oozes out.
6. Add 3 1/2 cups water, cover the pot and simmer under medium flame until it boils.
7. Once the curry is boil, add the crab and salt. Cook for a while.
8. Just before you turn off the fire, add in the sliced green chili and slice tomato for garnishing.

Note: if you like your curry to be creamy, you may add coconut milk. But most of the time, i dont add coconut milk to my curries. If you like your curry to be spicy you may add more chili powder or you can omit the cili powder if you you dont like spicy.
