I’ve had some hankering (love that word!) for all things crab, ever since I wrote about that little crab (mis)adventure. So the following are my tried and tested recipes of the crab dishes that I’ve been cooking and eating for the past couple of days. Just click on the links. Welcome to my world of crabs. Happy Cooking!
This is not how I usually cook my crab fried rice. But on the dinner we had at Eddie V’s, I was so smitten over their version so I had to recreate it myself. This is almost like Mexican fried rice. My usual way is the Asian variety with tons of garlic and crab paste.
Sautee a cup of onions, red and green bell peppers for about 4 minutes or until soft. Then add a cup of crab meat.Add the cooked rice, then a bout 1/2 cup of Thai sweet and sour sauce
The rice I used here is the garlic and herb boxed variety. For the sweet and sour sauce, use the one that they sell as dipping sauce for spring rolls. Half a cup is a conservative estimate. You might want to use more, if you want it richer in flavor.
