00:00 Take half a onion, red, yellow, white, doesn't matter.
00:07 Do a rough chop.
00:09 4-5 cloves of garlic, smashed and minced.
00:28 2 Thai chilies, more if you want more heat.
00:34 1-2 tablespoons of sambal or garlic tomato paste, chili garlic tomato paste.
00:56 4-5 teaspoons of fish sauce.
01:02 1/4 cup of ketchup.
01:23 1-1/2 tablespoons of corn starch or flour or arrowroot.
01:29 4 tablespoons of water.
01:33 In this case I used chicken broth.
01:37 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
01:41 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
01:45 1/2 teaspoon of cumin.
01:49 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric.
01:53 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
01:57 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric.
02:01 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
02:05 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric.
02:09 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
02:13 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric.
02:17 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
02:21 2 green onions, trimmed the root and cut in half.
02:27 Cut the green parts to 2 inch pieces.
02:33 The rest of it just mince or slice.
02:39 Here are the crab. They have to be steamed crab.
02:45 If you get it live you need to steam them or deep fry them first before you can use this recipe.
02:51 Remove the little tail area in the back there.
02:57 And cut it in half.
03:03 Remove the little tail area in the back there.
03:09 And the head. Take all the little gills out.
03:15 Then you're going to break this crab in half. There's a little center piece line. You'll see it.
03:31 And just crack it right in half. And then crack that piece in half. So you have 4 pieces.
03:39 I'm going to save this one. There you go.
03:51 2 tablespoons of oil in a hot wok. Saute the onions for about 3 to 5 minutes.
04:13 You can add beer, wine, or in this case apple cider. About a tablespoon, 2 tablespoons.
04:23 Then you add the broth. Any kind of broth. Chicken broth, beef broth, seafood broth.
04:33 Then the ketchup. Add the ketchup.
04:47 You're going to let that sit for a minute. And then that's the seasoning. The soy sauce, fish sauce seasoning.
04:57 Then once that's reduced for about a minute or two, add the crab.
05:05 And use 2 big spoons to mix all that together.
05:11 Cover for a minute. And squeeze some lime or lemon.
05:19 Cover again for a couple minutes.
05:23 Then crack 1 egg into that corn starch water mixture. Beat it.
05:31 Pour it in.
05:38 Mix all that together. And it's easier to mix when you remove the crab heads.
05:45 So go ahead and scoop those out. And that makes mixing it easier.
05:55 And once that's well blended, put the crab shells back in there.
06:04 And garnish with a little bit of green onions that we chopped earlier.
06:09 and that's Benito.
