Something you can make with coconut milk
Origin
Coconut milk is derived from the flesh of mature coconuts, which are the fruit of the coconut palm tree (Cocos nucifera). The coconut palm tree is native to the tropical regions of Southeast Asia, including countries like Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia. These regions have a long history of using coconuts for various culinary and medicinal purposes. Coconut milk is traditionally made by grating the white flesh of the coconut and then squeezing it to extract the creamy liquid. It is a staple ingredient in many Southeast Asian cuisines and is also widely used in Indian, Caribbean, and African cooking. Today, coconut milk is popular worldwide and is often used as a dairy-free alternative in vegan and lactose-free recipes.
