3. Carefully add crab pieces, stirring constantly until shell begins to change colour. Remove crab from wok and set aside.
4. Place wok back on heat and add Life's Good Massaman Curry Paste and eshallots and fry until fragrant.
5. Incorporate stock, Sam's Chilli Jam, fish sauce and crab pieces and stir fry for approx. 3-5 minutes.
6. Add wok choy, stir fry for 1 minute, then serve immediately.

Tip

If mud crab is unavailable, simply use 4 small seasonal crabs.
