Steps

1
Done

Wash carefully the sea crab and remove its shell, then cut the body in a half.
Next, use a pestle to beat its nippers so that they can absorb the condiments easily.
Peel the purple onion, onion, garlic, and ginger and cut them into large pieces. Grind these ingredients finely.

2
Done

Heat up the cooking oil in a pan with a medium flame.
Stir-fry the already ground mixture in this pan. Add ketchup, chili sauce, salt, and shrimp paste to stir at the same time.
Then, pour 500 milliliters of water for boiling the mixture to make the sauce.

3
Done

Add crab and stir finely. Leave the crab in the pan for about 10 minutes, occasionally turn the crab for it to absorb the condiments.
When the sauce in the pan becomes thicker, beat the chicken egg into the pan. Remember to use chopsticks to stir finely so that the egg is mixed with the sauce.
Continue to boil the mixture for about 1-2 minutes.

4
Done

Pour cold water into the bowl of the tapioca flour. Pour the mixture into the pan. Note: Stir vigorously while pouring to create the viscidity of the sauce.

5
Done

Place the crab on a large plate, pour the sauce on the crab pieces. We can sprinkle some herbs and have it served with bread or rice. We also can use the sauce to serve with fried dumplings, yum!
