Notes
Note that in this recipe you will want to use the type of coconut milk that comes in a can. The kind that comes in a carton has a different consistency, and would not work well in this dish.
This recipe does not use the full can of coconut milk, if you use a 15 or 13 oz can, so reserve the rest of the coconut milk for use in another dish,
