Chilli Mud Crab
Set lunch @ "Smith Marine", Singapore's very own Kelong restaurant, nesting in the waters, between the main island and Pulau Ubin.
I think I have featured the "national dish" of Singapore before - mud crabs cooked lovingly in a sweet, tangy and spicy sauce made from chilli sauce, ketchup, egg, garlic and ginger. The sauce complimented the crab extremely, bringing forth its alluring sweetness and tenderness but yet not masking away its evident seafoody allure. A dish that put the moreish in moreish.
The claw is always the most prized part.....for the generous amount of sweet and tender flesh encased within the armour.
