Topic: Rice
This is the first fried rice that I cooked with crabs, and since crabmeat flakes will tend to be very tiny and less visible, I decided to cook it with the beaten egg so that the flakes will be mixed together with the egg lumps, hence it will be visible in the rice. I also added mung bean sprouts to add more taste (part of my experimentation again) and it was really good.

Ingredients:
2 1/2 cup cold cooked rice
2/3 cup cooked crab meat
1 cup mung bean sprouts
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 egg, beaten
1 tbsp. fish sauce
2 tbsp. soy sauce
1/2 tsp. sugar
salt and pepper to taste
2 stalks green onions, cut into 1 inch length
2 tbsp. cooking oil
Directions:
1. Heat oil in wok, stir fry the crab meat and garlic for few seconds over high heat, add onion then egg and fish sauce, stir and cook for 2 minutes, or until the egg are harden. Add the sprouts. Stir to blend well and cook for 1 minute.
2. Add rice, soy sauce, sugar, salt and pepper. Stir and cook for 3 minutes or until the rice are heated through.
3. Stir in green onions and cook for 1 minute. Serve.
