I made curry yesterday, but that only required about a fourth cup of my can of coconut milk and I now have excess curry sauce that I don't want to throw away, but don't know what to do with. I thought about infusing the coconut milk into my grandmother's recipie for mashed potatoes, for which I have all the necessary ingredients and equipment, you know, just using it instead of regular milk, or perhaps in combination with.

I think the tastes will work together. There's still the matter of the curry sauce- I can do with with tofu, meat or vegetables and serve it on top of the mashed potatoes. I could do a meat and vegetable combination- my instincts toss out the notion of shrimp or pork with the potatoes, but chunks of steak or lamb might do. Cook the meat simply, put it on a bed of potatoes, drizzle the curry sauce all over- it seems like it's be good. Lamb will go better than steak, I think- maybe with some nice peas...

But I can't afford lamb right now. If I bought a bit of cornstarch, I could make pudding with the coconut milk (I just don't want anything to go to waste!), but the recipie in Joy of cooking was intended for a much bigger portion, sho I'd have to reduce everything. It'd get complicated. And then I'd still have to get rid of the curry mix somehow- the only meat I have right now is ground beef. Damn, I wish Joy of Cooking came with an ingredient specific index, to help me get rid of this stuff.

I wonder if the 'homestyle thai style' idea is all botched. I need a second oppinion. Where's Vohs?

Dude! Talk about weird coincidences...I made coconut pudding last week. ::Dr Evil voice:: "It's breathtaking, I suggest you try it." ^_~

Still nowhere on the editing of Ish-9 for R rating (it's so yummy! I don't wanna leave out a thing!), and ::big sigh:: I just got kidnapped by Butterfly Effect plot bunnies last night. Damn. I hate it and love it at the same time.

Hope you're well,

Coconut Milk

Ooh! You have to make sticky rice! Directions: Put the dry sticky rice in a corningware container dish thing with lid. Wait, my mom, who is giving me these directions, is confusing herself. She says: just come over this weekend and we'll make it. So you seriously should, because this is the best stuff in the world! Have you ever tried it? Sweet and coconutty, with little flakes of toasted coconut on top--Yum!

dude, im so freaking retarded

This is Agent Vohs, checking in. For some unknown reason you were taken off my default friend view list, so I had no idea you were posting all this time, and thus missed the call of help! So sorry :( will try harder next time.

heh, it's okay, ended up doing a chicken thing, but did think, for a while, you had forgotten I existed, which was v. irritating.
