Ingredients

• 200 grams glass noodles
• 250 grams crab meat
• 4 pieces garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon ginger
• 2 tablespoons cooking oil
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 2 stalks scallions
• 1 piece red chili
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
• 4 pieces lime wedges
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Soak the glass noodles in warm water for 10 minutes, or until softened. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Finely mince the garlic and ginger. Thinly slice the scallions and red chili. Set these aromatics aside.

Step 3

Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic, ginger, and sliced red chili to the pan. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until aromatic.

Step 5

Add the crab meat to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring gently to avoid breaking the meat apart.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil together, then pour the mixture into the pan.

Step 7

Pour in the chicken broth, bring to a gentle simmer, then add the softened glass noodles. Stir to coat the noodles evenly with the sauce.

Step 8

Season the dish with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss in the sliced scallions and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Transfer the glass noodles with crab to a serving platter. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.

Step 10

Serve warm with lime wedges on the side for an added zesty kick.
