Steps:
- Place the shallots in a saucepan with the lime juice and port. Reduce over medium heat until two tablespoons of sauce remain (five to seven minutes). Add heavy cream and grated ginger. Bring to a boil and reduce by a third to three tablespoons.
- Reduce heat to very low and whisk in the butter, a small piece at a time. Season to taste with salt and cayenne pepper. Strain the sauce through a fine mesh strainer and add a few more drops of lime juice if necessary. Keep warm (be careful not to overheat or the sauce may curdle).
- Preheat broiler or outdoor grill.
- Brush the crabs with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill three to four minutes on each side, until crisp and a deep reddish brown.
- Arrange the crabs on a serving platter, drizzle sauce over them and sprinkle with scallions and coriander.

[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but my crabs turned out tough and rubbery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

[email protected]These crabs were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I'll try making them again with less cayenne pepper next time.
