I had a go at making this last night after coming across the post in a google search for something I could make with some crab meat I found in the cupboard and pasta.

Admittedly, I didn’t have any asparagus or chilli peppers. But a tiny dash of sweet chilli sauce (less than a teaspoon) with some chilli flakes seemed to do the job.

It was wonderful! Thank you!

That’s a big plate of springtime, right there.

You should tell TJ’s that you post about them so much – maybe they’ll give you a kickback or something. :)

Patricia, thanks. We are really looking forward to getting this moving process over and start cooking in the new kitchen.

Amanda, you’re right. It would be good with rotisserie chicken.

Hi Judy! You guessed right. I just didn’t want to mention Trader Joe’s three posts in a row. The crab meat was good for the price, but I was expecting body meat too… my mistake for not reading the label.

saucytart, our pleasure. Dig in, try out the recipes and let me know what you think.

WC, I was dreaming of sup mang tay cua (asparagus crab soup) recently. So you must have made it, since we are on the same food wavelength!?!?

It must be food blogger moving week. ;-) The last several months, I’ve been tied to my laptop and internet almost 24-7, well, when I’m awake. It’s probably good for me to get off the grid for a little bit.

Chuck,
Freaky! Last week while grocery shopping, I saw a can of crab meat for $1.79. I made something with crab and asparagus too! Can you guess what it was? Hint: it’s VNese. :) Don’t worry, if you don’t guess, I’ll eventually post my recipe. ;)

PS, Is it weird that you’re the third blogger I know moving within the past week? And coincidentally, all three of you make apologies for being out of the internets while setting up house. Oh, man, we are so tied to the web.

l just love what you’re doing here. a great site & wonderful recipes. i’ve long been interested in asian cuisines, but terrified of it being too complicated to wrap my head around. thanks for making your recipes accessible (and giving up the family secrets)!

I am guessing you used the canned crab from the refrigerated section of Trader Joe’s. I find it of pretty good quality for canned crab, and definitely a good bargain.

I bet this would be equally as good with a roasted rotiserrie chicken too. Very budget-friendly dish.

A new and better kitchen is an extra push for some great food!
This looks delish.
