Here's my latest recipe known as "Hot and Spicy Crab Sambal" or in Malaysia we call it "Sambal Ketam Hot and Spicy". This time I did it "My Way" or I cooked it according to "My Way" with simple ingredients available in almost every home. I love to cook or invent something/dish that suit my own taste. Being a Malaysian, I love 'Sambal', I mean all Malaysian know what sambal is and today's recipe is one of  my newly invented recipes.
