蒜蓉蒸蟹糯米飯

Glutinous rice,topped with dried shiitake and shrimp sauce,then topped with crab,drizzle with garlic oil,wrap around with lotus leaf and steamed in a steam basket.
Served in many restaurants,but easy to achieve at home,even if you are in Japan!

お祝いの料理みたいな華やかさだねっ✨
蒸篭で作る蒸しごはん？かな？
もち米だからチマキ風かな。
ロータスの葉で包むのも雰囲気があって素敵です。良い香りだろうな〜❤︎

Hi Makiko,so good you like this!Actually this is served all year round,especially in seafood restaurants,not a festive dish at all!
It's steamed,so naturally a steam basket is first choice,the lotus leaf place under the rice,and crab on top,wrapped around with the lotus leaf top of the crab.My favourite big is the rice of course,it gets the essence of crab and aroma of lotus leaf,this one is super tasty!Highly recommend you to try!
