Ginataang Alimasag (Crabs in Coconut Milk)
Growing up in the Philippines, my dad would catch a lot of crabs, and ginataang alimasag (crabs in coconut milk) was my favorite recipe he'd make with them. It's a cross between a sauce and a stew, curry-like in texture and rich with sea flavors; think coconut milk, fish sauce, and shrimp paste, cut with the sharpness of ginger and scallions. Enjoy with freshly steamed white rice.
