About Kam heong crab

Kam Heong Crab, a popular Malaysian-Chinese dish, combines fresh crab with a flavorful medley of spices and aromatics. The name "Kam Heong" translates to "Golden Fragrance," a nod to the dish's rich, savory aroma. Its signature sauce is made from curry powder, dried shrimp, shallots, garlic, chilies, and curry leaves, often enhanced with soy sauce and a touch of sugar. Packed with protein from the crab, the dish can be a good source of essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, zinc, and selenium. However, it can also be high in sodium due to the soy sauce and dried shrimp, and the sauce’s oil content may add extra calories. Typically served with rice, Kam Heong Crab is a unique choice for anyone seeking bold, aromatic flavors, though moderation is key for those monitoring calorie or sodium intake. It's a beloved creation in Malaysia’s vibrant fusion cuisine.
