What can I do with a can of coconut milk?

[merigayle]

I have been making a thai ginger sweet potato soup, or something like it, lately--

1 onion diced and sauteed w some garlic and ginger, 3-4 sweet potatoes diced, cover with broth, cook until soft, add 1 can light coconut milk (cause i use the light kind, any kind will work) and blend, i use my immersion blender cause i am afraid to poor all that soup into the vitamix.

I most recently used coconut milk in this recipe, it was delicious.

Moqueca – Brazilian Fish Stew

In that case, I highly recommend pairing with caipirinhas

omg I made this for dinner tonight - I used 2 1/4 lbs of cod and 1/2 lb of cut up shrimp - it was off the chain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I used fresh parsley instead of cilantro, extra garlic - actually extra most of the spices and it was pure awesomeness.  The shrimp added a nice bit of texture to it.
My sister and her picky kids came by and gobbled it up (minus the fish, they don't like fish, np - more for us). 
I cannot rave about this dish enough and it will definitely be in my regular rotation.

1.  Or that dessert RA posted in the main forum.  I love coconut milk and use it quite a bit.

that recipe was in the current vegetarian times and they made it look very pretty.
