What to cook with coconut milk
Coconut milk splits when it boils hard, which is behind almost every grainy coconut curry.
Use the thick cream at the top of the tin at the start, fried with the spice paste until the oil separates, and save the thin milk for the simmer. Then add any remaining cream at the very end, off the heat.
Worth knowing: Do not shake the tin. The separation is useful.
