Thoroughly clean the crabs under running water, scrubbing them with a brush to remove any mud. Discard any dead crabs.

In a large pot, combine water (enough to cover the crabs), quartered onions, smashed garlic, cilantro, dried oregano, cumin seeds, and black peppercorns. Bring to a boil.
- 3
Carefully add the cleaned crabs to the boiling water, ensuring they are submerged.

Pour in the bottle of beer and add the chunks of green and ripe plantains. Season with salt to taste. Cover and simmer for about 30-40 minutes, or until the crabs turn bright red and the plantains are tender.

Remove the crabs and plantains from the pot. Optionally, you can quickly rinse the crabs under cold water to stop the cooking process and make the meat tender.

Serve the cangrejada hot, with the boiled plantains and some of the flavorful broth. It is traditionally accompanied by various salsas, such as salsa criolla (onion and tomato relish) and ají (spicy sauce).
