Long Beans with sambal belachan

Did not get clear photo of the dish. Cut the long beans to length of about 1 to 2 inches long, blanch them in boiling water to almost cook, set aside. Fry some dried shrimps till fragrant, add long beans and sambal belachan. (I used the sambal from Glory - see photo).

Chilli Crayfish

Use a brush to scrub and wash the crayfish and placed them in a steaming plate. Sliced some ginger and placed on top of the crayfish and sprinkled 1 tsp of chinese wine on them.

Steam them for about 15 minutes or when the shell of the crayfish turned orangy colour but be careful not to let the water in the wok dry up during steaming.

After steaming, drain the water in the steaming plate and when cool, remove the flesh from the shell of the crayfish and set aside.

To prepare the sauce, just follow the instructions behind the label of the jar. I used about half bottle of the chilli sauce.

When the sauce boiled, just add one beaten egg into it and mix well and pour over the crayfish.

Daison dinnerware

Got these plates at $2 each (microwave safe) from Daiso, look really beautiful. The four plates/bowls on the left, the one on extreme right is more expensive from Takashimaya.
