Doesn't get any easier than this! I used this recipe to make a curry and it worked well. Saved a trip to the store. Though in the future, I think I'll just buy coconut milk. This is very high calorie, and wasn't close enough to the real thing to make it worth it. BTW... I think coconut milk at the store is lactose free? It's called "milk" because it looks milky. Not because it's an actual milk product.

<p>I live in the Home of Sliced Bread. My little town in Missouri is where the first loaf of bread was sliced by machine, many years ago. <br /><br /><br />My favorite cookbook is recipezaar. I used to collect cookbooks, but I've given away all but my most cherished ones which belonged to my Grandma. I shop at an Amish community for my dry goods as much as possible. Right now, I'm in a canning phase and I probably will be until I'm too old to cut the mustard.</p>
