　　【Preparation Method】

　　1. Clean the crabs, steam them in a steamer for about 15 minutes, then remove, let cool, open the crab shells, and take out the crab meat for later use. 2. Wash the pork, remove tendons and membranes, and mince it. Dice the mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and bread into small cubes. Soak the dried shrimp in water, rinse, and dice them as well. 3. Combine the minced pork with the crab meat in a bowl, add the diced mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and mix well. Then add salt, sugar, pepper, cooking wine, egg whites, cornstarch, and peanut oil, and stir to form a filling. 4. Place the filling into the cleaned crab shells, shape it into a round form, then spread a layer of egg white and cornstarch mixture on top, and sprinkle with breadcrumbs. 5. Heat peanut oil in a wok until it reaches about 20% heat, then fry the crab shells one by one until fully cooked. When the oil reaches 50% heat, fry the crab shells again for about 5 minutes until golden brown, then remove and drain the oil. 6. Serve the stuffed crab shells on a plate, accompanied by small dishes of ginger-vinegar sauce and chili sauce for dipping.
