We enjoyed this, very tasty and easy too! I cut the recipe in half and I only did 1 teaspoon of curry (we have some "adult" babies here. LOL Also, I added a dash more tabasco as well. Thanks for posting. Made for ZWT 6, Zingo.

Used good ol' Maryland Crabs, (jumbo lump) and the addition of the curry is way over the top good!! I added more the usual amount of tabasco sauce and also 1 teaspoon of Old Bay Seasoning. Loved the sherry addition too! :) Good tasting!! Made for ZWT6 - 2010
