coconot cream?

carolbee

Hi, hoping for some help here please.

have a wonderful recipe from the 'slow' cookbook by Valentina Harris which calls for 100ml coconut cream. I have got coconut milk and creamed coconut. can I dilute the creamed coconut which is a solid block?

promise to share with you!

I'd use one or the other (or possibly both - the milk, with a chunk of the creamed coconut, if a more intense flavour is needed). If it's a savoury recipe like a Thai curry, the milk would be enough on its own, I would think.

thanks for that, its a sweet, marbled with choc, sounds yummy, and I can't spell coconut in the title either, too early for me to think about cakes I guess

I use the blocks with boiling water, but tins are as good.
