Look at the instructions on the package of tapioca that you buy. Some tapioca requires overnight soaking in water.

1. Color 50 g (2 oz.) big pearl tapioca in a little oil with 1/2 tsp. turmeric and a little water.
2. Add 1 liter (4 cups) vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
3. Cook, covered, for 30 minutes over low heat. 
4. Meanwhile, make the sauce by combining all the ingredients. 
5. Once the tapioca is cooked, add the sauce, coconut milk and crab. 
6. Sprinkle with cilantro before serving.
