Blue crab made in spicy coconut curry

Over all it was awesome day!! I ended up buying three live blue crab with the request of my son from the Smyrna farmers market. I have never cooked crab before let alone the live one. Freaked me out a little bit killing those poor crab, I needed some help from YouTube  “ How to clean the blue crab”  which came handy.  Still found out I didn’t clean properly later on, I was so scared of cutting the poor live crab I really didn’t bother to clean it in a proper way. But the taste of the crab made in coconut milk was simply worth and amazing. Wish I could have bought more for two of us. After intense googling of the recipe, I finally came to conclusion to make some spicy crab curry. Spicy crab curry with rice, and it was exactly the taste I wanted.  Sweet spicy blue crab!!!Yummy yummy…..
