To Prep

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the fish sauce, palm sugar, tamarind juice and lime juice and mix until the sugar has dissolved.

3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the snake beans, shredded papaya, tomatoes, carrots and dressing together. Mix well before adding in the dressing and then mixing again.
4. In another bowl, pour enough flour to coat the crabs. Season the flour and mix well before coating the crabs and setting aside.

To Cook

2. When the crabs have cooked, remove them from the oil and let drain over paper towels.

To Serve
