Ingredients
- 2 pounds live crabs (cleaned and cut into pieces)
- 1 pound bee Hoon (rice vermicelli noodles)
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 thumb-sized ginger (julienned)
- 2 red chilies (sliced, seeds removed for less spiciness)
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 cup chicken stock or seafood stock
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- Spring onions (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
- Soak the bee hoon noodles in warm water for about 10 minutes until they become soft. Drain and set aside.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, ginger, and sliced chilies. Stir-fry for a minute until fragrant.
- Add the crab pieces to the wok and stir-fry for 5 minutes until they start to turn red. Remove the crab and set aside.
- In the same wok, add the soaked bee hoon noodles along with oyster sauce, soy sauce, and fish sauce. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes to coat the noodles with the sauce.
- Pour in the chicken or seafood stock, along with the water. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer.
- Place the crab pieces back into the wok with the noodles. Cover and simmer for about 10 minutes until the crabs are cooked and the flavors are well incorporated.
- Add the bean sprouts to the wok and stir-fry for another minute until they are slightly cooked but still crunchy.
- Serve the Crab Bee Hoon hot, garnished with chopped spring onions.
