Crab with Misua and Patola

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Crab with Misua and Patola is a simple yet flavorful Filipino soup dish. This can be prepared using any type of edible crab, some Chinese vermicelli noodles (also called misua or miswa), and young loofah (or patola). The crab and fish sauce gives this dish its distinct taste.

Crab with Misua and Patola

I am using blue crabs for this recipe. If you will watch the video below, you will see that the crabs were already orange. I had them steamed right away when these were still fresh, so that I can freeze them and use them later on. It is still better to use fresh crabs for this recipe – I just did the steaming procedure because I purchased too many crabs and don’t want them to go to waste.

Aside from crab, you can also try using either of the following: meatballs, shrimp, or prawns. If using meatballs, I suggest that you add some beef or chicken broth to enhance the flavor of the dish; the recipe is the same if you decide to use shrimp or prawn.

Try this Crab with Misua and Patola recipe. Cheers!
