Default Chilli Crab - here you go Easy D... as promised

1/3 cup peanut oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 fresh red chillies, finally chopped
1 teaspoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon chilli paste or sambal olek (I use sambal olek only 'cause it is hotter)
1/3 cup tomato sauce (ketchup)
2 tablespoons sugar ( I forgot the sugar once... yuk)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
3 medium sized cooked crabs - I use sandcrabs ...


Using a cleaver or sharp knife cut the crabs in half/wash and put aside.

Heat a wok (or heavy frying pan) both oils and swirl to heat. Stir fry the crab halves for 5 minutes and remove crabs to a dish.

Reduce heat and stir-fry garlic, chillies and ginger for 3 minutes, then add chilli paste, tomato sauce, sugar and soy sauce... Mix well and bring to the boil

Return the crab halves to the wok and stir well - simmer for around 5 minutes adding a little water if the dish is in danger of drying out.. ( I normally add maybe 1/2 cup of water)

Serve immediately with fresh salad or crusty bread (or just roll up the sleeves and enjoy)

Damn, that is all I want now too. That sauce sounds like it would be good on a lot of things.

Do you people realize that crabs - and lobsters - are nothing more than giant SEA BUGS!!! Seriously! The lobster is a direct descendent of the cockroach!!!!

I've never been able to try either one. Disgusting!
(why isn't there a puking smilie??)

Tawny -

How to get crabs in the middle of the night............

Go down to the local tavern and wait for "Debbie The Human Mattress" to go to the loo.
Follow her.
Take note of the cubicle in which she occupied.
Wait for her to exit said cubicle.
Once the exiting is done...Go QUICKLY in, expose your bottom and sit on the warm seat.
Crabs.
And lots of em.

Now don't be thankin' me, my froggy friend.
For you, the world.

Helen
