Directions: |
Directions:1. In very large pot pour enough olive oil in to almost cover bottom. Add several cloves of chopped garlic and kosher salt.
2. Saute garlic and salt lightly till start to smell the aroma of garlic.
3. Add the cans of tomatoes.
4. Add salt, garlic powder, crushed basil, and fresh basil. Stir thoroughly.
5. After cleaning and splitting the raw crabs, just toss them into the gravy.
6. Carefully stir gravy.
7. Add about 1/2 cup locatelli cheese. (Some people do not like cheese with the crabs - but I do so I included it here. You can omit if you prefer. ) Stir again.
8. Allow to simmer over low heat for about 3 hours, stirring frequently. Make sure bottom does not burn.
9. Keep tasting and adjusting seasonings as needed. Add more fresh basil towards end of cooking. |
