Notes on Ingredients
This is the recipe given to me, but I make the following adjustments every time I prepare it.
I always buy 2 cans of coconut milk instead to trying to differentiate between cream and milk. for the first one in the list, I use 1 can and pour in 1 more can of water. I do this because the chicken needs to be fairly well covered as it warms up in the pot (see Directions).
