Ingredients

4 fresh crabs

1 tsp ginger, grated
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

Instructions

Clean the crabs by removing their shells and gills. Rinse them well under cold water.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and ginger, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and red pepper flakes. Pour the sauce over the crabs and stir to coat evenly.
Cover the skillet and simmer for 3-4 minutes until the crabs are fully cooked and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Sprinkle chopped green onions and sesame seeds over the crabs. Serve hot.
