Crab Bee Hoon (Soup) For our New Year's Eve party, I cooked this Crab Bee Hoon cos' I found lovely fresh crabs in the supermarket while doing my last minute shopping. I simply LOVE crabs with roe (: The broth was lovely and rich... and of course, the crabs were awesome. This dish is almost too cheap to prepare as compared to paying lots of $$ in restaurants for it!

This recipe was cooked in a hurry so I failed to document the image steps. But fret not, I'll do so when I cook this soon! (: I took the inspiration from Rasa Malaysia.

This dish is pretty manageable so I'd rate it a difficulty level 3 out of 5. It takes about 30 minutes - 45 minutes to prepare this dish. The speed greatly depends on how fast you can clean the crabs (: Crab Bee Hoon Recipe
1 packet of thick beehoon
sliced ginger from 1 small part of ginger (about 8 thin slices)
1 can chicken stock
[This can be reduced by 2-3 tbsp depending on how rich you want your soup]
2 crabs, cleaned and cut into pieces
4 pcs bok choy
1 tbsp huadiaojiu
some white pepper
1 stalk scallion


1. Boil the beehoon. Rinse with cold water to remove starch (water should run clear). Set aside in serving bowl.
2. In a pot, melt the butter and saute the ginger.
3. Add the chicken stock and water. Bring to a boil.
4. Add the evaporated milk and give it a gentle stir.
5. Add the crab and cook it till it's cooked. Crab would turn red and flesh will be white.
6. Add the bok choy, huadiaojiu, white pepper and scallions. Bring to a quick boil.
7. Pour the soup over the thick beehoon and serve.
