- Make Sauce: Heat oil in medium-warm saucepan. Saute/fry chopped garlic till fragrant. Add in curry pwdr. Stir over medium heat for about 1 minute - avoid burning pwdr. Add in stock, salt, sugar and ginger; bring to boil; cook for 1 minute. Add in bell pepper, that has been coarsely diced into 1/4" squares; stir in sufficient thin cornstarch paste to make a light sauce.
- As soon as sauce thickens, remove from heat and reserve. This sauce can be made up ahead and reheated just before serving.
- Clean & Steam Crab: Pry off plate from crab in one piece. Separate legs with cleaver; wash all parts, cleaning out junk; cut soft inner sections of legs into manageable pcs. Carefully crack claws, keeping them intact.
- Reassemble crab on oval platter. Before putting on back, sprinkle meat with dry sherry; lay ginger on top; then put on back plate. Wash green onions, remove roots, and shred, greens and all, into 2" sections.
- Bring water in steamer to rolling boil. Steam crab for about 15-20 min, depending on size. Meanwhile, reheat curry sauce (or possibly keep warm in double boiler). Remove steamed crab from steamer; drain excess water. Lift back plate off crab; pour curry sauce over crab; sprinkle with onion shreds; return back plate. Serve.
