Cooking the best chilli crab with thick savoury sauce, just like at a hawker stall in Singapore is rather easy. Even in Malaysia, chilli crab is enjoyed by the locals.
Look no further for an easy crab recipe. Authentic chilli crab like in Singapore can be recreated in your kitchen, anywhere in the world! This crab dish is made out of a paste which has all the five basic taste of sweet, spicy, sour, salty and umami! There is a reason why it is listed #29 under [CNN World’s 50 Most Delicious Food](edition.cnn.co...) in 2017.
Despite its name, this dish is actually not spicy. This gravy is cooked in a gravy which is thick, sweet and savoury with only a slight tinge of spiciness.
It is normally accompanied by deep fried or [steamed Chinese buns also known as 'mantao'](/recipes/steamed-chinese-buns).
Type of crab
Normally, mud crabs are used to prepare this dish. In Germany, I was only able to get a live brown crab instead but the result was still amazing. You may even use soft shell crabs if that is your preference. Use your creativity. I could also imagine some juicy and succulent prawns embedded in the sauce!
How to humanely kill the crab?
Cleaning the crab was bothersome but it is necessary to ensure that all impurities are removed. However, the first hurdle was to kill the crab. To do so, place the live crab in the freezer for 20 minutes. This will make them ‘sleep’. You can then quickly chop them up and cook immediately.
What is in the chilli crab sauce?
The chilli crab sauce combines chillies, ginger, garlic, ketchup and most importantly, fermented soybeans. The gravy is then thickened and egg is added to it.

Hi there. I was searching for this recipe and found your youtube clip last week. I try it today and it is perfect! We are Singaporeans living in Hong Kong and I don't think there is any restaurant here that cook Singapore-styled chilli crabs. Even if there is one, it will definitely too pricey to even consider.
I used 3 crabs but the total weight is less than 1 kg. Took me about 2 hours from the time I started killing the crabs to finish cooking the dish. However, it is all worth it when my wife and daughter said that it tastes like what we use to eat in Singapore.
Once again, thanks for this clip.
I love Singaporean cuisine! I can hangout at the food courts all day. I also love Laksa and the Arab curries. Yum
Thanks for the recipe!! I used oyster sauce as an alternative to tauchu. Thank you so much!
I already try this recipe and taste was amazing.

I always have different emotional responses to hearing different English accents. Singapore and Hong Kong are always flashes of memory for me.
hong kong people speak better english than us singaporeans...accent wise and grammar.
Awesome, it looks amazing
Thanks!!!
Look delicious!!!
I don't have fermented bean paste so can I skip it out for this items in this recipe?
Rohit Pillai its optional as what she said, or if you want can sub with miso paste
+CL Yin thank you :)
Jika recipi ini bubuh air ,mada tumis, bererti recipi ini di Jerman sudah out dari resioi tersebut.. Masa Sos Chilli dan Sos Tomati boleh campur air 3 vs 5 spoon air filter yang panas dan miwed well..ingar nya.. Recioi Jerman sudah taruh air terlalu banyak.. Ok.. Pelanggan - Pelanggan You Tube. !
great recipe!
Thank you for the wonderful video , tho :)
How can I make it by myself can you please explain more ...???
can i use korean fermented soybean paste? i can't find taucu here
I think that's ok. To confirm this, please post your question here: www.nyonyacooking.com/recipes/singapore-style-chilli-crab~Bk6QdvoPf9Z7 . Our cook or community manager will help you out.
Hi Grace. What's the weight of the brown crab? I will use flower crabs which are not heavy. So i will know how to measure the ingredients.
I think, I saw you in a documentary.
Jika masa tumis, kamu sudah campur air filter, bereti recipi Jerman sudah out of recipe.. Ok.
Delicious!
I love the sauce, but I don't want to cook crab at home. Do you have any suggestions on what else might be a good substitute besides lobster? Thanks for sharing the recipe by the way. I love Singapore food.
Prawns! We've just updated the recipe background section for you with more recommendations: www.nyonyacooking.com/recipes/singapore-style-chilli-crab~Bk6QdvoPf9Z7 Check it out!
@@nyonyacooking Thanks Nyonya for the reply! :)
owh you are residing in germany? i thought you are residing in malay..so thats mean when you went to pasar malam connaught are way back does it?
Yeapppp :)
Great recipe. Do you know black pepper crab. Thank you.
Why put the shell back in?
I do this too, when I make this dish. It's way better looking with the shell, and that stimulates appetite.
How much water do you add after you place the fermented bean in?
Is the tomato sauce just ketchup (North American ketchup if there's any difference)
Yes, that is just ketchup. We call it tomato sauce >
Do the asian markt in germany sell tauco?
Sure!
i miss the chilli crab! and I dont have crab right now, but Im salivating so much the flavours that Im going to do it with the chicken breasts I have, just for the sauce flavours! lol
