With curry powder and currants, this isn't your run-of-the-mill crab and cheese dip. Serve hot or warm with water crackers, Melba toast, etc.

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a casserole dish with nonstick spray.

  2. Place currants in a bowl. Add boiling water until just barely covered. Let stand for 15 minutes.

  3. Drain currants, and reserve the liquid.

  4. Combine cream cheese, coconut milk, green onions, bell pepper, curry powder, and mayonnaise; beat until smooth and creamy. Mix in crabmeat, currants, and reserved liquid. Transfer to the prepared casserole dish.

Cook's Note:

Any type of curry will work but I like Madras the best.
