Swagath: Crab Butter-Pepper-Garlic

Crab Butter Pepper Garlic

This was the dish that first sold us on Swagath a decade ago. Very fiddly to eat if you get it with whole crab as we did on this occasion but very good. There is also a less fiddly shelled crab option and looking back, I think in the past I may actually have preferred the version with squid. To mop this up we got some neer dosas (soft, white and nothing like the crisp dosas most people in the West, or North India, for that matter, are familiar with); but I unaccountably did not photograph them.
