If I can have food as bestfriends, hot sauce would probably be one of them. First would be chocolate. But of course. You know that joke about people putting a small bottle of hot sauce in their handbags? Well, I could be one of those people, hehehe. This spicy crab flakes stir-fry was not only cooked in chili garlic sauce, it also has sprinkled of red pepper flakes. When I want to cook something spicy, I go all out. Well not to a point that the dish is inedible. Cooking with hot pepper sauce is something I have to learn to balance so I could still enjoy the meal.
INGREDIENTS:
2 packs of crab flakes
3 cloves of garlic, chopped finely
3 sprigs of scallions, chopped
1 thumb size of ginger, peeled and chopped finely
2 tbsp of chili garlic sauce
sprinkles of red pepper flakes
2 cup of water
salt and pepper
3 tbsp of vegetable oil
Heat up oil in a pan, sauté garlic, half of the scallions and garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes or so.
Add the crab flakes, chili garlic sauce, red pepper flakes, water, salt and pepper. Stir gently, cover then let it cook for about 8 to 10 minutes.
It’s a really simple dish that would work nicely with white rice. If you like spicy food then you’d like this too. Finding more hot sauces to cook with is really cool especially when you’re directed to funny sauces from Hot Sauce Planet. The names of the bottles cracked me up. Endorphin Rush Beyond, Neal’s Hairy Hot Ass Hot Sauce, Trailer Trash Hot Sauce, Ass Kickin’ Original Hot Sauce, Baboon Ass Hot Sauce, just to name a few.
