chilli crab
Spicy crabs are usually peeled raw and then fried in oil. This way, the taste is relatively fresh, but I don't have the ability to peel raw. I'm afraid that this little thing will pinch my hands, so I steam it before peeling it. However, the taste is also good. Anyway, I don't think it's much worse. Therefore, people who like to eat spicy crabs but don't have the ability to peel their shells can steam them like me. If they pursue the taste, steam them semi-cooked and then coat them with oil. It will be more tender.
