Thread: Wayne Kerr’s Curry Crab and Shrimp

Getting stuff in order is dead easy. I like to boil the crab first if you’re using mud crab. Blue crab you can just break up uncooked. Some tips here (Wayne Kerr’s Chilli Crab) on how to buy and boil the mud crabs. Slice up the long green chillies, smash the red chilli and garlic up together, and stir the raw egg up in a bowl.


^ Stuff ready to go

Cooking all this took no longer than 4 minutes. Supposed to be cooked fast on high heat. Just a few simple steps and you’ll be there.


^ Gently fry the red chilli and garlic, then add a dash of water and a bit of yellow curry powder


^ Throw the shrimp for about 30 seconds


^ Then the crab


^ Then the herbs and spices


^ The get the fry pan bloody hot and pour in the egg


^ Stir it around for about 1 minute to cook the egg and then put in/on something to serve

This was enough for four of us with rice. Total cost 280 baht.




^ Best served with cold beer

Overall a simple and delicious dish that should about 20 odd minutes to knock up if you've got the ingredients on hand.

Damn! Are you any relation to that Canadian cook I used to see on TV as a kid, Graham Kerr? Also known as the "Galloping Gourmet".

Slobber, slobber, drool, drool.

^ Nah but my uncle is a chef and calle Joe Kerr. Taught me a thing or two .

Graham Kerr always had to have a lot of wine, funny bastard he was, but come to find out, he drank the wine, bout a gallon on every show,, Poor bastard ended up in AA and ain't had a drink in years.

Is it ok to substitute frozen crab meat so you don't have to fuck about with the shells?

PS - When's this bladdy restaurant opening?

As soon as dear old Mrs. Kerr gets her ducks in a row old chap. I believe she spent all of today watching the tennis. At least she's not wasting time .

There's a few places available on Lad Prao near the MRT. I think that would be a perfect location.

I'll try cooking that for friends here in Canada! Thanks.

Hey Wayne, There's a bloody tuna in ya beer!

Now come to think of it, I often wondered why my mates call me the "Walloping Gourmet"

Can't see why not. I just do what Mrs. Kerr says

She's looking at a place here in Ratchada, but I've been doing my best to convince her to look closer out around the boondocks. With the cheaper rents out there, reckon people would have more to spend on food (bladdy genius I am)

They have shrimp and crab like that in Canada? Last time I was in Newfoundland it was all cod and "screech" rum.

Think that must be the reflection off my fishing photos from the weekend I was looking at
