Can I make a curry without coconut milk?



I have chicken, and I have green curry paste. I’m not in the mood to be creative, and I can’t think of anything else to make. Can I just slice up the chicken breasts and fry it with oil and curry paste with some veges and serve it on rice? Because I dont have any coconut milk, just regular milk. Any other suggestions?

1) Cream
2) Yoghurt

You can use a bit of ordinary milk. My mother keeps some coconut essence so she can have the taste of coconut milk without the saturated fats. Just remember that ordinary milk is thinner, so you probably won’t need as much.

I personally think it would be fine to do it your way but the paste might already have coconut in it. I guess you’d know better since you have it in your hand. Anyway, I think it would be good. Many curries don’t use coconut.

This is the highest rated recipe, but I don’t know if you have all of the ingredients…

If you don’t, go to the home page, click on chicken, and use the “sifter” to filter the ingredients out that you have or don’t have. I love this site when I need ideas…

If it were me I’d forget about the curry itself and just brown the chicken, add some veggies, maybe a little soy and brown sugar and put that over rice. You could use the curry paste is a very small amount, but I guarantee it would be fantastic without milk, no matter what you do. Always add garlic though…well cooked garlic improves the flavor (and heat) of any dish.

Yes of course…THere are two variants in curry:one is the thinner version witout coconut milk and the one is creamier with coconut milk.
If you really want to have the creamier version of it and you dont have coconut milk in your hands, you can add yogurt,or milk or even ground cashew nuts…it will really make the curry thick and creamier…Enjoy your curry dear..

I’ve only heard of a can of evaporated milk for a substitute and apparently easier on the cals as well.

You can use tinned or chopped fresh tomatoes if you’d like that flavour-it’s a more indian style curry, like a tikka masala. You could also add cream too, or just use cream on it’s own. It’ll still have the nice fresh flavour with the tomatoes-some chopped cilantro would be lovely on top.

yes u can do that. use paprika as a replacement
