Cooking fresh crab in its shell retains the sweetness of the meat. Eating
crab cooked in this manner is an informal affair, allowing enjoyment of the
company and much conversation between friends.
~-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Clean the crab by removing the shell from the body only. Disjoint the legs
and crack the shell of the legs with a mallet. Rinse to remove small
pieces of shell, drain and set aside.

Heat a wok or large skillet on medium-high heat. Add the oil, garlic and
onion. Stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the cracked crab pieces and stir-fry
for 2 minutes.

Add all remaining ingredients except the egg, cilantro and green onions.
Cover the skillet and continue cooking on medium-high heat for another 3
minutes, or until the crab is cooked.

Add the egg and stir to combine thoroughly.

Remove to a serving dish and garnish with the cilantro and green onions.
