<p>For the perfect dinner party dish, serve these steamed swimmer crabs. The whole recipe can be ready in 20 minutes. </p>

Uncooked blue swimmer crabs

Lemongrass stems,  pale section only,  thinly sliced

White sugar

Light soy sauce

Cm fresh ginger,  peeled,  cut into matchsticks

Green shallots,  ends trimmed,  thinly sliced

Ground white pepper

To segment the crabs, lift the flap under the body with your thumb. Pull off the top part of the shell with one hand while holding the body firmly with the other. Discard the top shell. Remove and discard the spongy white gills on either side of the body. Use a sharp knife to cut each body in half, then in half again. Use a nutcracker to crack the claws.

step 1

Add enough water to a wok to reach a depth of 5cm. Bring to the boil over medium-high heat. Place a bamboo steamer over simmering water (make sure steamer base doesn't touch water).

step 2

Meanwhile, place lemon grass on a heatproof plate. Place crab on the lemon grass. Sprinkle with sugar and drizzle with soy sauce. Sprinkle over half the ginger.

step 3

Place the plate in the steamer and cook, covered, for 3-5 minutes or until crab is just cooked through (the meat will be white rather than transparent when cooked). Sprinkle with green shallot and remaining ginger, and cook for a further 2 minutes or until green shallot wilts. Remove from heat.

step 4

Transfer the crab to serving bowls. Sprinkle with pepper and garnish with coriander leaves. Serve immediately.
