Try this special crab dish... 😊

BLACK PEPPER CRAB
We start off with mud crabs or soft shell crabs and Chinese seasonings, adding Indian black pepper and curry leaves, enriching the flavour with butter and then tossing in Malay bird's-eye chillies for a knockout true Malaysian Cuisine..!! πŸ‘

INGREDIENTS:
500g fresh mud crabs or soft shell crabs
Oil for deep-frying
2 tablespoon butter
3 shallots, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, very finely chopped
1 tablespoon salted soy beans (Tauchu Bean Paste) mashed
2 tablespoon dried prawns, roasted and ground
2 tablespoon black pepper, grounded coarsely
cup (20g) curry leaves
10 red or green bird's eye chillies, chopped (its chilli padi in Malay)
2 tablespoon black soy sauce
2 tablespoon brown sugar
2 tablespoon oyster sauce
cup water
Salt according to taste(do not add too much as bean paste is quite salty)

METHOD:
Clean crabs and cut in half, discarding the spongy "dead man's fingers". Smash the claws with a cleaver to allow the seasonings to blend in. Add a little salt and deep fry the crabs until half cooked, drain and set aside.

Heat a wok, melt butter and put in shallots, garlic, salted soy beans, dried prawns, black pepper, curry leaves and chillies. Saute until fragrant, then add crabs, water and the remaining ingredients. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes until the lovely crabs are done…!!

Note: Enjoy your crabs with bread, chapattis or hot rice. Kavi could you take a snapshot of a bottle of Tauchu Bean Paste for our friends in here, pls? Thanks.

Chilli Crabs


2 kgs crabs, cleaned, cut half and the claws lightly mashed with pestle
1 tbs ginger paste
1 tbs garlic paste
1 ts salt
2-3 glasses water

In a wok, add all the above ingredients and bring to boil. Test if the crabs are cooked and strain. Keep the stock.

Ingredients for sauce

10-12 fresh red chillies
3 pips garlic
1 inch ginger
1 – 2 tbs vinegar (white or Chinese white wine)
1 ts salt
1 pc Lemon grass

Grind finely the above in a blender with a little stock until ground and set aside.

Stir fry ingredients
cup of tomato sauce
1 – 2 tbs Fish sauce or soy sauce
1 ts ginger paste Ginger paste
3 tbs garlic paste
1-2 large onions, finely chopped
2 sliced bird's chilli
oil


In a wok, pour in little oil. Stir fry, chopped onions, garlic and ginger paste and bird's eye chilli till light lightly, do not brown. Add blended chilli sauce and stir fry for few mins. Keep stirring until the raw chilli smell lessens.   Then add in tomato sauce, fish sauce, Worcestershire sauce, oyster sauce and fish sauce. Stir fry for few mins. Then add a cup of stock. Allow it to boil. Allow to thicken a bit.  Then add in the crabs. Keep stirring. Taste for seasoning. Add more fish sauce if needed.

If you don't want to make your own chilli sauce. You can add 1-1.5 cups of chilli sauce from the bottle.

The sauce should be semi thick. The above chilli crab goes very well with toasted bread. The sauce could be extremely hot for some of you, so lessen the chillies or add more tomato ketchup.

Note :  if the sauce is too watery for your liking, add a little cornstarch in 1tbs of water and add to the sauce. 



The chilli crab should look something like this.  This photo is courtesy from internet.  I did not cook or arrange or took picture of this. The picture is nothing to do with me.
