Ka's Teriyaki Crabs

Cooked this dish last week when I saw mud crabs going for $3 each... Bought 2.. Recipe's pretty simple, partly due to the use of terikayi sauce (I like the thicker teriyaki marinade sauce by Kikoman)

Ka's T Crabs

Ingredients:
2 mud crabs, cleaned
4 tbsp teriyaki marinade sauce
4 cloves of garlic
1 tsp pepper
4 tbsp chinese wine
1 tbsp oil
1 cup water

Method:
[1] Chop the garlic finely. Put aside.
[2] Heat the oil in a wok over medium heat. Fry the garlic till fragrant.
[3] Add the crab and wine. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes.
[4] Add the water, teriyaki sauce and pepper. Cover and leave to simmer for about 10 minutes.
[5] Remove the cover, turn the heat up to high, and stir fry for another 5 minutes. The liquid should have thickened up and/or evaporated. Serve warm with plain bread or rice.


This is easy right? Haha... You can leave the crabs in the freezer if you do not fancy killing them yourself... It does get kinda grisly, especially when their muscle reflexes set in and they start twitching after getting chopped up.... (T_T)
