Where do you get powdered coconut milk from? I have never seen it.

Ive got 3 sachets of coconut milk in my cupboard, i bought it to make chicken korma with but didnt like it:o (the homemade korma that is!! Hate to say it but takeaway is much nicer) and havent a clue what to do with the other 3 sachets, does anyone have any suggestions?

I will eat/try most things but the only problem I have is Im allergic to cinnamon

Im not fussed whether its used for sweet or savoury dishes but I dont want to bin them

Thanks very very much

ps I have seen the bounty pudding/rice pudding recipe and thats already on the maybe list so that just leaves the 2 sachets

This recipe from Delia (coconut lime cake) uses coconut milk powder and it looks yummy

You can cook rice in coconut milk to make coconut rice.

I dont like HM korma either but make a nice mild curry with veggies of just coconut milk a bit of curry powder and some garam masala. I add tomatoes to mine too and its really lovely.

You can also cook black eyed beans in coconut milk, apparently tastes lovely.
