Instructions

Crustacean Garlic Noodles Recipe

  1. Rinse the yellow noodles under running water to remove any oil. Drain well and set aside.
  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook until just tender, being careful not to overcook them, as they can become soggy. Remove the noodles from the pot and drain well.
  3. Prepare the Garlic Sauce by heating a sauté pan over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt, then add the garlic and sauté until fragrant but not browned. Add all the seasonings and stir to combine. Transfer the garlic sauce to a small bowl.
  4. To serve, toss the noodles with the garlic sauce. Add the Parmesan cheese and mix until well combined. Serve immediately.

Crustacean Roasted Crab Recipe

  1. Clean and chop the crab into 6-8 pieces. Heat the butter in a wok over medium-low heat and sauté the garlic until aromatic but not browned. Add the black pepper and chicken bouillon powder, then incorporate the crab and stir well. Add the sugar and cook the crab until the shell starts to change color.
  2. Dish out the crab and bake it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 25-30 minutes. Serve hot with garlic noodles

Notes

  • For individual serving of the garlic noodles, take some noodles to a bowl and add some garlic sauce to taste. Drizzle some grated Parmesan cheese, stir to combine well before serving.
