The prawns are fixed on a skewer

Thirty some years ago when the waters of Kemari were less polluted, people who paid to take a ride on Captain Saleem’s boat experienced actual crabbing, fishing their own food out of the waters and then Captain Saleem and his team would anchor the boat and cook up a delicious meal with their own spice blends and masalas, serving items such as crab lollipops (crab claws served cracked open so that it is easier to eat them), spicy potatoes, fried fish and prawn masala.
