Cangrejo Guisado / Caribbean Crab Stew
Cangrejo Guisado. That´s crab a la República Dominikana style.
I was lucky enough to spend 2 years in the Dominican Republic between 2006 and 2008 living and working on a wonderful beach resort. Made a lot of friends we now call family and this is one of the many recipes that I learnt from my friend Alexis Martinéz. OK my spanish is very so-so, so let me know if you find any errors. Enjoy!
