Curry crab

Curried crab is a traditional crab dish originating from Macau. The dish is usually made with a combination of softshell crabs, garlic, shallots, scallions, ginger, oil, flour, turmeric, curry powder, rice wine, salt, and sugar. The crabs are prepared for cooking, dredged with flour, then deep-fried in oil to seal the juices in. The ginger, garlic, shallots, and scallions are sautéed in oil until soft, then mixed with turmeric, curry powder, water, rice wine, salt, and sugar. The crab is added to the pan and the dish is cooked until the liquid is reduced. Once done, curried crab is garnished with scallions and served hot.
