Notes
Note 1: I break the crabs into the half. But you can use the whole crabs as well.

Note 2: If you don’t like more spiciness, reduce the amount of curry powder.

Note 3: I instantly made coconut milk from grated coconut. If it is hard to find, you can use coconut milk powder or bottled coconut milk.
