Pepper Crabs
Crabs!!! Chili Crabs and Pepper Crabs are very popular in Singapore which happens to be our favorite dish-another popular taste bud among the locals and tourist. As a newly married couple we had Pepper Crab at Long Beach Seafood Restaurant in Upper East Coast Park in Singapore. It was so tasty that we didn't noticed that we splashed with pepper sauce on faces and clothes..Just image how tasty those crabs till we both didn't notice the mess we made. My hubby prepares excellent Pepper crab and I would like to share his recipe here. Normally Sir Lakan Crabs will be great to prepare this recipe but as we cannot find them here-we are using frozen snow crabs.
