Spiced Crab recipe (pr)n)

buccaneer · 02-15-2013, 06:50 PM

2 Lb crab shelled and cut into pieces
1/2 cup neutral oil
1 tsp:cayenne, cumin
3 tsp : garlic, ginger, lemongrass, dark soy, fresh sliced chilies
1/2 tsp : turmeric
Mix well and let sit.
6 scallion cut into 2 inch pieces
Bunch of coriander chopped.
1 cup of grape tomatoes, halved

Steam crabs for 5 minutes.
Then put oil mixture into how wok, and fry the crabs & tomatoes and scallion for 4 minutes turning constantly.
Dish up and squeeze lemon over.
Beer or white wine goes great!

The idea is to get a fast yet tasty crab dish without the sticky sauces that usually accompany these dishes.
The crab is still sweet crab tasting but gnawing on the shells gives a fantastic bunch of kick and flavours
Enjoy!

I try and steer clear of crabs, I mean I'm still trying to shake off the VD from yesterday, but I gotta admit, that looks pretty darn good. :thumbup:

I just had a craving for some crab yesterday, made some crab stuffed ABT's.

If I saw this yesterday, I'd probably would have made something like this, that looks awesome.
