Poo cha (a.k.a. poo ja) is a Thai dish consisting of stuffed, deep-fried crabs. The dish is best prepared with fresh crabs that are steamed, and the meat is then removed and flaked before it is combined with pork, shrimps, soy sauce, garlic, fish sauce, and various other spices and seasonings.

The mixture is then stuffed inside crab shells, which are occasionally steamed before they are deep-fried. The crabs are usually served with a dipping sauce on the side.
