I made aloo gobi for lunch today. I want to try your cauliflower potato recipe. I don’t have a fresh coconut, just the canned “milk” and a package of dessicated coconut, which I’ll use. Your site is inspirational, Thanks.
Hi Anthony,
You can use the canned coconut milk for this recipe. Hope you’ll like it.
