Migrate boot partition on encrypted install

I installed Manjaro with full disk encryption using the option in Manjaro setup. When I boot, a grub prompt asks me for a password, after which I get a grub menu.



I want to change this behavior, so that the grub menu comes up before unlocking, and only asks for passphrase if I end up choosing to boot into Manjaro. What are tge steps to do this?

    Full disk encryption also encrypts the areas of the disk used by grub. So they need to be unlocked before grub can post the menu. As for changing it, I am not sure as to how.
