What can I use as an alternative for coconut milk?
I'm trying to find an alternative to coconut milk that I can use in curries mostly but also soups. I have tried heavy cream but the results always come out as if something is missing or the dish becomes too "heavy".
I am aiming for something that will give some of that coconut flavour or similar to it but also the creaminess without getting to rich.
I'll add that "dry" coconut products like coconut flakes are fine for me to use, but I'm not sure how to use them in a savoury type of dish.
Thanks in advace for any recommendations
