Crayfish with Sambal Chilli in HappyCallPan - Closer shot

This is a spicy dish for chilli lovers.

Ready-made Sambal Chilli can be conveniently purchase from any supermarket, hence it made the recipe for dish reduces at least half of its steps. But I have to say that I took a long time to choose the bottle of sambal chilli as there are many varieties. Some of them taste more sour than the rest, and from my experience, they look lighter or "orangish" in the color of the sambal chilli sauce. My preferred taste for this dish is spicy but yet it comes with a "little sweetness". Finally, I decided to go with A1 brand as it looks deep dark red, without the chilli seed visible. I tried cooking, and yeah... this is the taste that I wanted. =)

Ingredients

1. 6 or 900g Crayfish/ Slipper Lobster (Use a kitchen scissor to cut into two)
2. 2 Big Red Onion cut into thin slices
3. 6 to 8 Tablespoons of Sambal Chilli (eg. Brand A1, quantity based on individual liking on spicyness)

Steps

1. Add Olive Oil into happycallpan
2. Add half of the total Onion and stir-fry until translucent or fragrant
3. Spread Crayfish onto happycallpan and close the lid
