Every time I buy a can of coconut milk, I always end up with a half-used can somehow. I put it in a resealable container, but inevitably forget about it in my fridge cemetery (the top shelf). Well, not this week. To help you use up the full can once and for all, we’re rounding up some great recipes with coconut milk.
