Recipe: Malaysian Noodles with Crab and Sausage (Penang char kway teow)


Yield: Serves 4

You Will Need:

  • 7  ounces  wide, flat dried rice noodles
  • 3  tablespoons  vegetable oil
  • 2  garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1  to 2 tbsp. sambal chili paste
  • 2  Chinese sausages (lop chong), cut into 1/4-in. slices
  • 6  green onions, trimmed and cut into 2-in. lengths
  • 2  tablespoons  soy sauce
  • 4  large eggs
  • 1/2  teaspoon  freshly ground white pepper*
  • 6  ounces  mung bean sprouts
  • 1/2  pound  shelled, cooked Dungeness crab

How To:

1. Put noodles in a large bowl and cover with boiling water. Let sit 5 to 8 minutes, or until tender. Drain; rinse with cold water.

2. Heat a large wok over medium heat. Add oil and swirl to coat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Stir in sambal (start with 1 tbsp.); mixture will spatter, so stand back after adding.

3. Increase heat to medium-high and add sausages. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sausages are light golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add onions and cook, stirring, until beginning to soften but still quite crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Add noodles and soy sauce, stirring to coat.

4. Make a well in pan. Crack in eggs (push noodles aside if they fall into the center) and cook until whites begin to set, 3 minutes. Break yolks with a spoon; scramble eggs and toss with noodles.

5. Add white pepper, 1 tbsp. water, the bean sprouts, and crab; cook, stirring, until bean sprouts are tender-crisp, 2 minutes.
