Indulgent spicy chilli crab with fresh ingredients, leaving you happily messy.
Ingredients:
  • 9.20 gm peanut oil
  • 4 green (uncooked) blue swimmer crabs
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 fresh long red chillies (or 1-2 fresh red birdseye chillies for extra heat), finely chopped
  • 20.00 ml finely grated fresh ginger
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) tomato sauce
  • 44.00 gm sweet chilli sauce
  • 40.00 ml dry sherry
  • 16.00 gm brown sugar
  • 6 green shallots, ends trimmed, thinly sliced diagonally
  • 125.00 ml firmly packed coarsely chopped fresh coriander
  • Steamed jasmine rice, to serve
Instructions:
  • In a sizzling wok, quickly stir-fry the crab in hot oil for 5-7 minutes until the meat turns white, signifying it's perfectly cooked.
  • Sauté the garlic, chili, and ginger until fragrant. Pour in the tomato and sweet chili sauces, sherry, and sugar. Cook until the sauce boils and thickens slightly. Take off the heat. Stir in the green shallots until wilted. Sprinkle in the coriander and mix gently. Serve the chili crab on steamed rice in serving bowls.
