Creamed coconut is a solid white block made from pure coconut and is widely used in Thai, Indian and Caribbean cooking. It adds a distinctive coconut flavour and rich, creamy texture to dishes, chopped into chunks it can be stirred directly into sauces to thicken them. It can also be reconstituted with hot water before use, following packet or recipe instructions. Creamed coconut can be reconstituted and used in recipes instead of coconut milk. To make up the equivalent of 300ml of coconut milk roughly chop 50g of creamed coconut and stir in 100ml of hot water, stir well to mix and use as required. As a substitute for coconut cream, dissolve 75g creamed coconut in 100ml of hot water and stir until smooth.

Creamed coconut can also be grated and used in place of desiccated coconut.

Uses: Creamed coconut is popular in a variety of dishes including curries, soups and fish dishes, it adds richness and flavour and can also temper the heat of curries. It can be used to thicken sauces, casseroles and soups - stir gradually until the desired consistency is required.

To store: Keep in a cool, dark cupboard and once opened store in an airtight container to prevent the block drying out.

To prepare: Reconstitute with hot boiling water or chop and stir into sauces.
