Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté Aromatics

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Add Stock

    Pour in the chicken or vegetable stock and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to cook for about 10 minutes to develop the flavors.

  3. 3

    Incorporate Cream and Curry

    Lower the heat and stir in the heavy cream and curry powder. Mix well until combined. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add Crab and Season

    Gently fold in the jumbo lump crab meat. Season with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste. Allow the soup to heat through, about 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finish with Parsley

    Remove the pot from heat and stir in the freshly chopped parsley. Let the soup sit for a couple of minutes before serving.
