CRAB 'N RICE (THE BAHAMAS)
This recipe Is from week 19 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook one meal from every nation on Earth, and The Bahamas are my 19th stop. Crab 'n rice is a favorite meal in the Bahamas; it is traditionally made with land crabs, but sea crabs are an almost indistinguishable substitution.

Steps:
- Crack the crab and remove the meat. Carefully pick through the meat to make sure there are no remaining bits of shell.
- Chop up the vegetables and fry them in the oil until they are soft. Stir in the tomato paste and seasonings, adding a little more oil if you need to. Saute for a few minutes until the flavors are incorporated.
- Add three cups of water (I used non-traditional crab stock) and bring to a boil. Add the pigeon peas and crab and let boil for five minutes or so.
- Add the rice (you can also add more water if the mixture looks too dry), return to a boil, then reduce heat and cover. Let simmer until all the liquid has been absorbed (about 20 minutes).
