Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium flame.

Add 1 medium diced onion and 6 cloves of smashed garlic; sauté until fragrant.

Stir in 0.5 teaspoon cumin seeds and 0.75 teaspoon cumin seeds; cook for about 4 minutes.

Add 1 tablespoon of curry powder and toast it with the spices on low heat.

Pour in water to help cook out the rawness of the curry powder.

Add cleaned and cut 3 crabs and stir in a tablespoon of Caribbean green seasoning and sea salt.

Add 1 medium diced tomato and 6 medium potatoes, peeled and washed, to the pot.
