Hello everyone! I'd like to share an easy way to cook a spicy crab dish at home that seafood lovers will enjoy.
Ingredients
- 1 kilogram crab
- 1 large onion
- 6 red chili pods
- 11 cloves of garlic
- 60 grams ginger
- 2 spoons sugar
- 8 small onions (shallots)
- 100 milliliters tomato sauce
- 80 milliliters oyster sauce
- 80 grams palm sugar
- 50 milliliters vinegar
- Cooking oil
Step-by-step instructions
(1) First, add about one spoon of cooking oil to a blender along with the large onion, small onions, ginger, and chili peppers, and blend them together. While blending, add another spoon of cooking oil. Then heat a pot over medium heat, add the blended paste, and let it simmer in oil for about 15 minutes.
(2) Once 15 minutes have passed, add the tomato paste, oyster sauce, sugar, and vinegar into the same pot that has been simmering in oil, and stir well. Stir thoroughly for about 5 minutes, and once it's cooked, you can remove it from the stove.
(3) Next, place another pot on the stove and heat it. Once the pot is hot, add about 2 spoons of cooking oil. Then thinly slice the garlic and onion into not-too-thick slices, and fry them in the heated oil for about 30 seconds.
(4) After that, add the thoroughly washed and cleaned crabs along with the chili paste that was simmered earlier, and mix evenly. After a short while, add a little water and let it cook for about 3 minutes. Once the 3 minutes are up and the crab shells have opened, you'll have a delicious spicy crab dish ready. Then remove it from the stove, place it in a dish of your choice, garnish with coriander leaves to decorate the dish, and enjoy it deliciously.
