Tropical Thai flavours give a new twist to wings. Be sure to use regular (not light) coconut milk in order for it to reduce properly. Garnish with lime wedges.
Toasting coconut gives it a nutty flavour that pairs nicely with the lemon custard and sweet coconut cream in this tart. If the coconut milk is separated in the can, give it a whisk.
This refreshing fruit-and-cream concoction makes a great centrepiece for a children's party or a backyard barbecue with tropical food. Although coconut allergies are very rare, make sure your guests know that the punch contains coconut milk.

Creamy coconut milk and rich white chocolate, which come together in this velvety-smooth and perfectly sweet custard, are a match made in heaven. For easy slicing, let the tart chill once you've added the custard. Use a vegetable peeler to easily shave the chocolate garnish.
These small sweet steamed buns are popular throughout the Philippines and best served to soak up sauces and broths. Be sure to buy full-fat coconut milk and, before opening it, soak the can in hot water for 5 minutes to melt the solids that congeal on top. Shake before opening.
This is a simple green curry coconut milk stir fry served on a bed of rice with cashews sprinkled on top. You could serve this to hard core vegans as there are no animal parts involved here. I love anything with cashews, and the green curry paste can be adjusted as you make it. You can use less green curry paste for wimps or more for the brave.
