    Plain text recipe:

    Quick and easy as it takes ~30 minutes – replicable without having to go for a dive with store-bought crabmeat!

    Ingredients:
    • 4 cups cooked rice (ideally day-old)
    • Cooking oil as needed
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • 2 large eggs
    • 2 cups picked cooked crabmeat
    • 2 tbsp crab roe (optional)
    • 1/2 cup each of green onion and cilantro, finely chopped
    • 4 tsp fish sauce (+ more for serving)
    • 2 tsp soy sauce
    • 2 tsp ground white pepper
    • 1 tsp ground black pepper
    • Salt to taste
    • 1/2 cucumber, sliced to serve
    • Lime wedges to serve
    • Chopped red chilis to serve

    Steps:
    • Heat cooking oil in wok over medium heat; toast roe (if using) for a few minutes and set aside
    • Turn heat to high and toast garlic in wok until golden and fragrant
    • Push garlic to sides of work and crack in two eggs in the center, mixing rapidly to scramble
    • Add cooked rice and break up clumps; stir well with eggs
    • Add crab meat and roe (if using); stir well • Add soy sauce, fish sauce, black & white pepper and salt; stir well
