Curried Chile Crab image

Fresh crab is stir-fried with garlic, ginger, and plenty of fresh chiles, then combined with curry powder and coconut milk for lots of flavor. Smallish crabs such as blue swimmers are good for this but you can use any fresh crabs you find at the market.

I'm allergic to shellfish, so I made this dish with chicken instead of crab. It was still very good, but I think it would have been even better with crab.
