Main Ingredients
- 1 pack imitation crab sticks

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, thinly slice the onion. Heat a little cooking oil in a frying pan over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onions and stir-fry until they become translucent. It’s important to sauté them gently without browning to bring out their natural sweetness.
Step 2
Once the onions are slightly softened, add the imitation crab sticks, torn or cut into bite-sized pieces (about 2-3 cm long). Stir-fry them together with the onions. Be gentle to avoid breaking the crab sticks.
Step 3
Now it’s time to season the dish. Add 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, a pinch of sugar to enhance the sweetness, and a pinch of black pepper for aroma. Stir well to combine everything and continue stir-frying.
Step 4
Finally, sprinkle some sesame seeds for a nutty flavor. Stir-fry for about one more minute until all the ingredients are well coated with the sauce. Your delicious crab stick stir-fry is ready!
Step 5
And there you have it – a wonderfully simple crab stick stir-fry! The savory oyster sauce perfectly complements the sweetness of the onions and the delicate flavor of the crab sticks, making it an irresistible dish that pairs wonderfully with rice. Stir-frying crab sticks this way offers a unique and delightful taste, different from the usual. Give it a try!
