Rellenong Alimasag is the Filipino version of Stuffed Crabs. Crab meat is sauteed along with some vegetables, spices, and seasonings. The cooked mixture is later stuffed inside individual top shells of the crab, and fried in medium heat for a few minutes to complete the cooking process. Since the meat extracted from each piece of crab is limited, fillers such as carrots and potatoes are used. These vegetables also act as additional sources of vitamins and nutrients.
Rellenong Alimasag is best served with hot steamed white rice. As for the sauce, I really don’t want to get fancy. I use our favorite brand of banana ketchup. In case you want something different, try usingsweet and sour sauce.这个是cipe uses blue crabs because it is the most common variety in my location. You may use different types of crabs depending on your preference. It is also possible to omit the vegetable fillers if you have additional crab meat. Some groceries sell fresh or frozen crab meats — there are also canned crab meats in the section where canned tuna are located.
