I'm rarely crabby but I DO love crabs! - and this is an easy way of fixing them. Works with prawns too! Ingredients:
3 pieces crabs or 15 pieces shell-on king prawns |
6 pieces garlic cloves, crushed & chopped |
6 pieces shallots, chopped |
2 pieces dried chilies |
1 teaspoon ginger, chopped |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 teaspoon coarse black pepper |
2 teaspoons cornflour |
salt and pepper, to season |
4 spring onions, chopped |
3 tablespoons lard or 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, for stir frying |
cooking oil, for deep frying |
Directions:
1. Season crabs or prawns with black pepper, salt and corn flour.
2. Deep fry until almost done and set aside.
3. Heat wok and add cooking oil. Stir-fry the garlic, shallots, chili, ginger, onions and black pepper for 2 minutes.
4. Add crabs/prawns then fry for 2 more minutes.
5. Add the spring onion then cover the wok to cook for another minute.
6. Serve hot.
7. TIP: You might want to cracked the shells and the pincers of the crabs a little bit after deep frying so it will absorb the flavor when you sauté it with the rest of the ingredients.
