This recipe reminds me so much of my brother, he can have this for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The whole family love it, this recipe is a keeper. If you have tried this recipe do leave me your feedback.
I'm not good at following the recipes given to me. I usually amend it according to my taste bud. As you know typical Singaporean crab has chillies, tomato paste and shrimp paste in it. My recipe will be slightly different, I added curry paste and curry leaves to enhance the flavour. It is not as spicy as you think, it doesn't add spicyness in the gravy but this will only to leave you of wanting more. You can skip them from the recipes and it still taste awesome.

I didn't use crab this time but use lobster instead. I like to impress my guess with my culinary skill. I will cook something like this, something different, rare or authentic. I like people to remember me because of my awesome tasty food. This is the recipe you looking for to entertain you guess. You can mix crab, lobster, prawn or any shellfish in this recipe. Ganish chopped corriender or scallion on top. Chili crab best to eat with jasmine rice or roti.
