Dan Hong shares his recipe for a stunning main course of crab stir-fried with Chinese flavours such as ginger, spring onion and XO sauce.

Roasted mud crab dressed with its own juice, then enlivened even more with tangy mayonnaise - does lunch get much better than this?

This is such a special dish and a good reason to keep a packet of frozen spanner crab meat ready in case guests arrive unexpectedly for dinner.
