Junoon Spiced Crab Salad for Village Voice.jpg

Today, we have a recipe for a spiced crab salad from Junoon, an upscale Indian restaurant in Flatiron. Headed by executive chef Vikas Khanna (who also happens to be a super hot chef), the fancy Indian eatery highlights five distinct Indian cooking methods: the tandoor (clay oven), sigri (open fire pit), handi (curry), tawa (cast-iron preparations), and patthar (stone cooking).

The spiced crab isn't on the restaurant's regular menu and is pulled out for pop-up events.

Good thing we have the full recipe.

Here's a recipe for scallop aguachile from Gran Electrica chef Sam Richman. At this Mexican restaurant in DUMBO, Richman (formerly of Jean Georges) serves market-driven dishes inspired by his travels throughout various regions of Mexico.

"I was introduced to this dish when I was in Mexico back in January, and my favorite version of the dish was in a Sinaloan restaurant in Mexico City, where shrimp were marinated in a puree of herbs, garlic, lime, and jalapenos, and tossed with lots of fresh cucumber and red onion to be scooped on top of a tostada," Richman says. "Here in New York, we have access to incredibly delicious, local day-boat scallop whose sweetness pairs well with the spicy, acidic, and herbaceous aguachile puree."

This dish has been one of the most popular items since the restaurant opened in spring.

Prettier than pickles

Watermelon season is a hard time for New Yorkers. It's late summer, it's hotter than ever, and the window air conditioners are barely working. It all makes that fat green globe nestled among its friends at the grocery store look like the best idea, ever.
