Saw this recipe from one of my Chinese New Year recipe books, so I thought of giving it a try as I wonder what will the taste like when steaming the Glutinous Rice and Crab together. So after searching two days in the market for the crab, I finally found it today. Overall, you need not season the crab, and it will actually absorb those fragrant from the rice and seasoning as well as the bamboo steamer..... So you might want to give it a try if you are a fan of seafood....
Ingredients:
1 - 2 Mud Crab, depending on the size
300g Glutinous Rice
3 Dried Black Mushrooms
30g Dried Shrimps
1 Shallot(sliced)
1 Stalk Spring Onion, cut into sections
3 Slices Of Ginger
Seasoning:
1 Teaspoon Light Soy Sauce
2 Teaspoons Dark Soy Sauce
1/2 Teaspoon Sugar
3 Tablespoons Water
Methods:
1. Wash Glutinous Rice, soak in water overnight, drain and put into stainless steel steaming tray and steam for 1/2 hour over high heat and keep warm.
2. Soak black mushrooms until soft, remove the stems and dices. Wash and dice dried shrimps.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in wok, stir fry shallot until fragrant, add mushrooms and dried shrimps then stir-fry well and pour in seasoning then bring to boil.
4. Pour the seasoning into the glutinous rice and stir well, then put into a bamboo steamer and keep warm.
5. Gut the crabs, wash and cut into large pieces and arrange the crab over the rice with some spring onion and ginger slices then top with the shell and steam on high heat for 10 minutes.
