Background:
This recipe comes from my friend, Nancy Gee! I saw this on her facebook profile, and thought it was so yummy!
Recipe:
1. Crab
1 large crab (approx 2.5-3 lbs cleaned, pat dry, and cut into pieces)
5 scallions (cut in 2 in pieces)
1 half dollar size of ginger (cut in matchsticks or sliced)
2 cloves minced garlic
1 tbsp peanut (cooking oil ok)
splash of soy sauce
splash of chinese cooking wine
sprinkle of salt
1 egg
Directions:
Scramble 1 egg with a small sprinkle of salt, and set aside
In a wok, heat up oil on medium high and stir fry ginger, and garlic, and half of the scallions until fragrant. Toss in crab, and stir around for a minute. Add the splash of soy sauce & cooking wine, and mix well. pour scrambled egg over crab, and stir fry for another 10 seconds. Throw in remaining half of scallions, then cover the wok, and let crab steam for 7 minutes. Serve immediately
2. Crustacean Inspired Garlic Noodles
1 bag of chow mein (boiled & strained)
Approx 1 stick of salted butter (use good butter like Kerrygold Irish or Plurga)
1 bulb of garlic (or 1/2 if you plan on kissing somebody)
1 small minced shallot
1/2 tbsp hoisin sauce
Approx 1 stick of salted butter (use good butter like Kerrygold Irish or Plurga)
1 bulb of garlic (or 1/2 if you plan on kissing somebody)
1 small minced shallot
1/2 tbsp hoisin sauce
grated parmesan (optional)
Directions:
Satay garlic and shallot in melted butter. Turn to low heat, toss in noodles to heat, and add hoisin sauce. I would add 1/2 tsp increments of hoisin until it taste like Crustacean’s. A little goes a long way
Bon Appetit,
Nancy
