Armed with Sam, the fishmonger&#8217;s, instructions of cooking them in boiling water for 12 minutes, I then went home and started trawling through my cookbooks as to how best to make a meal out of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-attachment-id=\"225\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/index.php\/baked-crab-with-salted-egg-mince-garlic-and-shallots-butter\/img_20200523_123232\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_123232-scaled-e1590428996815.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1300,975\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.73&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Pixel 4&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1590237152&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.38&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;47&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.019728&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_20200523_123232\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_123232-300x225.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_123232-1024x768.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_123232-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"225\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_123232-scaled-e1590428996815.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/?attachment_id=225\" class=\"wp-image-225\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"837\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"226\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/index.php\/baked-crab-with-salted-egg-mince-garlic-and-shallots-butter\/img_20200523_173009\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_173009-scaled-e1590429073413.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,1468\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.73&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;Pixel 4&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1590255009&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.38&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;48&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.037283&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_20200523_173009\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_173009-scaled-e1590429073413-245x300.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_173009-scaled-e1590429073413-837x1024.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_173009-scaled-e1590429073413-837x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"226\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_173009-scaled-e1590429073413.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/?attachment_id=226\" class=\"wp-image-226\" srcset=\"https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_173009-scaled-e1590429073413-837x1024.jpg 837w, https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_173009-scaled-e1590429073413-245x300.jpg 245w, https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_173009-scaled-e1590429073413-768x940.jpg 768w, https:\/\/happy-eats.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_20200523_173009-scaled-e1590429073413.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n<p>It turned out that none of the cookbooks I had have a recipe for a whole crab. There are many recipes using crab meat but I wasn&#8217;t going to just use the meat when I had the whole crab to play with. Unfortunately we do not have a gas hob otherwise the most obvious way of cooking these crabs to showcase their freshness would be to simply fry them in a hot wok with shallots and garlic.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately my mum still has her late 80s\/early 90s cookbooks from Hong Kong including the classic \u2308\u65b9\u592a\u8207\u4f60\u230b by the great Mrs Lisa Fong who pioneered television cooking on Hong Kong television that I grew up with. One of the recipes in this was a whole crab recipe with salted egg and mince sauce that required frying the crab and then baking in a casserole dish.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I was lazy and didn&#8217;t want to have to deep fry the crab first so I modified \u65b9\u592a &#8216;s(Mrs Fong) recipe a bit. I also wanted a buttery richness to it so decided to make a butter sauce with some shallots that I bought from our local farm shop that morning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery

and pork mince which goes remarkably well with crab. Once the mince has been mixed with the mashed salted egg. Salted egg (\u9e79\u86cb) is a pre-salted duck egg that you can buy from Chinese supermarkets. The salting process solidifies the yokes so don&#8217;t be too surprised when you crack that duck egg to find a ball of yoke. We are only using the salted egg yoke in this recipe which needs to be mashed and added to the pork mince along with the seasoning.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, sauteed the garlic, shallots and spring onions in copious amount of butter, ready for use.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Spoon the mince pork on top of the reassembled crab, then spoon over the butter all over the crab. Place the top shell back on and bake in a pre-heated oven for 15-20 minutes at 180\u00b0C.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex
