Ingredients

200g Crab meat
3 tbsp Chili sauce
2 cloves, minced Garlic
1 tsp, grated Ginger
1 tbsp Soy sauce
1 tsp Sesame oil
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1 tbsp Water
2 tbsp, chopped Cilantro
1, cut into wedges Lime

Method

Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 1 minute, then add minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté until fragrant, 30 seconds.
Add the crab meat to the skillet, stir to coat with oil, cook until it starts to turn opaque, 2–3 minutes.
Pour in the chili sauce and soy sauce, stir to combine, then add water and cornstarch slurry, whisking constantly until the sauce thickens, 3–4 minutes.
Reduce heat to low, simmer the mixture, allowing the flavors to meld, 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt if needed, then remove from heat.
Transfer the spicy crab mixture onto a plate lined with parchment paper, let it cool slightly.
Serve the chili crab bites with fresh cilantro, lime wedges, and a side of steamed rice or bread for a comforting snack.
Enjoy the vibrant flavors, ensuring the heat level is suitable for kids by offering extra lime or cucumber slices to balance the spice.
