Cooking tips

  • It is recommended to buy pre-purged small crabs, as purging them at home can be tricky and may affect your mental health.
  • Be careful when stirring while adding the sauce and stir-frying, as stirring too roughly can cause the crab legs to detach and make the dish look messy.
  • You can also use flour or pancake mix instead of frying powder.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to make a unique and savory side dish.
  • Those who enjoy seafood dishes that can be eaten whole, including the shells.
  • Those looking for a new rice-stealing recipe with a sweet, savory, and spicy sauce.
