    how much was the coconut milk?
    is it worth a journey to Aldi

    I bought it last week and I think it was around 35p for a 400g can. Not sure if it's cheap but it seemed like a good deal to me.

    Still can't get that link to load Kyle - weird!

    Thanks for all the suggestions, much appreciated.

    Where will I find curry queen's veg korma recipe?

    Heres a recipe I use for coconut rice pudding! its lovely!

    It does make quite a lot!;)

    1 can of coconut milk
    1.5 pints of milk
    5 oz pudding rice
    2 oz sugar
    1/2 oz dessicated coconut

    I usually half this recipe because I havent got a big enough dish ! I got the recipe from this site but didn't keep the instructions just make it like usual rice pudd.The recipe did say it was nice to serve with timmed mango and ice cream! but we have it on its own!

    Just in case any of you didn't know, the coconut milk is not the fluid you drink after piercing a coconut. You can make your own coconut milk by desicating the flesh of a cocnut and pouring hot water over the desicated flesh. That's coconut milk.

    Did this today but without the dessicated coconut as I didn't have any. Took about 4 hours in the slow cooker and I did stir it frequently. It was delicious.

    Thanks very much :j

    doh - edited as I said with instead of without!

    On Friday night I made a Spicy Prawn curry with ginger coconut rice that was pretty good.
    It's not easy having a good time. Even smiling makes my face ache.
