Method

  1. 1 Clean the crab, separate the shell, and cut the body in half. Gently crush the claws to allow the marinade to penetrate easily and make it easier to eat.
  2. 2 Fry the crabs in hot oil until the shells turn bright red, then remove them from the oil.
  3. 3 Sauté the onions and dried chilies, then add the curry powder and stir-fry until fragrant.
  4. 4 Return the crab to the pan, then pour the mixture of beaten eggs and evaporated milk over it.
  5. 5 Stir gently over low heat until the eggs form a soft clump around the crab, season with oyster sauce, and sprinkle with chopped scallions.
