作り方

• 1 - Prepare broth base:
  Boil pork ribs in 2 liters of water for 15-20 minutes to create a light broth. Remove ribs and keep broth clear by skimming impurities.
• 2 - Prepare Crab Paste:
  Mix fresh crab meat with beaten eggs and half of the minced shallots and garlic, seasoning lightly with fish sauce to form the crab paste.
• 3 - Cook Tomato Base:
  In a separate pan, sauté remaining shallots and garlic with oil until golden. Add tomato wedges and cook until softened. Add fermented shrimp paste and tamarind paste; cook 3 minutes.
• 4 - Combine Crab Paste and Broth:
  Add tomato base to pork broth, bring to simmer. Scoop spoonfuls of crab paste into simmering broth, forming small lumps. Gently cook until crab paste firms, about 5 minutes.
• 5 - Fry Tofu:
  Cut tofu into cubes and fry in hot oil until golden on all sides. Drain on paper towel.
• 6 - Prepare Noodles and Garnishes:
  Cook rice vermicelli noodles according to package instructions and drain. Arrange fresh herbs, bean sprouts, and lime wedges for serving.
• 7 - Assemble Soup Bowls:
  Divide noodles into bowls. Ladle hot crab soup over noodles, adding fried tofu cubes. Garnish with spring onions and serve with fresh herbs and lime on the side.
