Crab In Coconut Milk Food

GINATAANG ALIMASAG (CRABS IN COCONUT MILK)

Ginataang Alimasag (Crabs in Coconut Milk) image

Growing up in the Philippines, my dad would catch a lot of crab, and this was my favorite dish he'd make with it. It's a cross between a sauce and a stew, curry-like in texture and rich with flavors of the sea; think coconut milk, fish sauce, and shrimp paste, cut with the sharpness of ginger and scallions. Enjoy with freshly steamed white rice.

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

2 whole Dungeness crabs
½ cup garlic oil
½ cup sliced garlic
1 yellow onion, sliced
1 cup thinly sliced ginger rounds, with skin on
½ cup bias-sliced scallions, whites only
kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 (8.75 ounce) jar sauteed shrimp paste (such as Kamayan)
5 Thai chiles, sliced into thin rings
1 ½ quarts coconut milk
½ quart water, or more as needed
1 bunch fresh spinach
½ cup bias-sliced scallions, greens only

Steps:

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop crabs in and cook until shells turn bright red, 8 to 10 minutes. Plunge crabs into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.
Heat a large wok over medium-high heat and add garlic oil. Stir in garlic and cook until lightly toasted and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add onion and ginger and saute until onion is translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add scallion whites. Season with a few pinches of salt and pepper.
Add fish sauce and let infuse for 1 minute. Stir in shrimp paste and toast for about 3 minutes. Add Thai chiles; saute for 1 minute more. Pour in coconut milk and water. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes, adding more water if too dry.
Meanwhile, break open the crab. Add to the sauce along with any accumulated juices. Simmer until flavors meld, 8 to 10 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Toss in spinach and let wilt. Garnish with scallion greens.

Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1 large dungeness crab (cleaned, shell intact)
1 tablespoon peeled and julienned gingerroot
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 stalk lemongrass, stalk pounded white part only (about 4 cm)
1 teaspoon curry powder (mild or hot depending on your preference) or 1 teaspoon curry paste (mild or hot depending on your preference)
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
3 tablespoons vinegar
2 cups thick coconut milk (unfortunately the light coconut milk doesn't go very well with this recipe)
2 cups broccoli florets
1/2 cup green bell pepper, strips
1/2 cup julienned carrot
1/4 cup chopped celery

Steps:

In a large casserole over high heat, sauté the ginger, onion, garlic and lemon grass in oil.
Add the crab, season with salt, pepper and vinegar. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until it changes colour.
Remove crab and cut in 4 equal pieces, put it back in the casserole, then pour the coconut milk, stir constantly, then add the oyster sauce and curry powder. Do not cover. Shake the casserole occasionally to distribute the seasoning evenly as well as to avoid the curdling of the coconut milk. Let it cook for about 15-20 minutes.
Add the bell pepper, carrots, celery, and broccoli, cook for 5 minutes or until crisp.
Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Serve with steamed rice.
