Can i freeze coconut milk?

Yes it will freeze well. I'll add your thread to the previous one to keep the ideas together. This thread might help too:

You can also use it to make a very nice vegan icecream:

1 frozen ripe banana
160ml coconut milk
2 tbsp sugar
2 heaped tbsp crunchy peanut butter
1 tsp vanilla essence
In a food processor place all ingredients and mix.
Eat or freeze for later.

Hope you enjoy it.

Hi all, I could do with some advice, please!

I am using coconut milk in a recipe tonight but only want to use half a can as a) it's so expensive and b) it's so fattening! Could I decant the other half into a container and freeze it?

Many thanks

You can It may separate on defrosting, so give it a stir and it'll be fine.

Thanks, Penelope!

As the title says - I opened a can of coconut milk to make a thai curry and have over half left over. Can I freeze it or do we have to eat thai curry for the next 3 days?!

I have frozen it in the past with no problem. Don't try and defrost in microwave though, that didn't end well...

It freezes fine, but it separates when you defrost it. It might 'whisk' back to a creamy consistency, but I haven't tried. The flavour's the same, though.

hmm, I've an inkling it will separate if you freeze it.

Yes, it's fine for freezing - it does separate when it defrosts, as fridgesoup and j.e.j. said, but a good stir gets in back to normal.
