This is my best curry for the moment. Usually I only eat green curry and I love crab, simple steamed, along with spicy seafood sauce. Until recently when I was in India and had the “ Indian” crab curry. I got curious and decided to make the Thai crab curry once. I love this so much that I think I will say goodbye to simple steamed crab and have them with this yellow curry from now on. This is just how I try to make it, simply.

Tip: Personally I found the version with the coconut milk (my first trial) tastes better than the one with milk. It gives a bit more liquid and simply tastes better!
