1. Brush the surface of the swimming crab and cut off the buttocks. The legs don't need to be broken off, I cut them all out just to make them easier to eat. Split the crab shell from the bottom, and cut off the two pointed corners of the shell, which are too sharp and sharp. Remove the gills and cut the crab meat into two pieces. I also cut the thorns on the crab's tongs. Because there are babies to eat, it’s too dangerous to eat.
2. This step also varies from person to person. Coat the crab meat cuts with starch. In order to keep the crab meat fresh and tender, the crab meat is not easy to loosen. But if you want to eat crab meat loosely and tasty, this step is not necessary.
3. The rice cakes are prepared and immersed in water beforehand. The rice cakes made first at the vegetable market are considered soft, so they can be fried directly. If it is packaged, it can be cut into strips or slices, rinsed once, and then set aside. The other ingredients are very simple, garlic, ginger, garlic leaves.
4. The cuts of the crab are covered with starch, and the cuts and the meaty areas are fried for a while, and the shape is fixed to lock the crab juice.
5. Fry 4 large pieces of crab meat, add crab shells and crab feet, stir fry, add ginger and garlic. When the crab shell turns red, add cooking wine, dark soy sauce and salt. After the soup is thick, add water just over the crab shells, cook until 1/2 of the soup is left, take out the two crab shells (convenient to stir-fry rice cakes), and add the rice cakes.
6. Add the rice cakes, stir-fry and add some juice, then add garlic leaves and chili powder. Turn off the heat, turn the pot, and serve.
7. The rice cake is not tasty when it is cold. Be sure to eat it while it's hot! Don't just focus on gnawing crabs. The weather turns cold, and it will be cold when the crab rice cakes are finished. It seems to be made into crab rice cake pot next time.
Tips:1. Portunus crab belongs to seafood. Pregnant women and people who are allergic to seafood should avoid eating it. 2. Hairy crabs can also be used, but it is a pity that the swimming crabs are just right, the meat is juicy and fresh. 3. Use a few crabs for several people. The rice cake is just the amount for two people. If you like to eat, add more rice cake. 4. Frying the soup with the flavor of crab meat is the key!
