Can I use something other than coconut milk?
Yes. If you prefer not using coconut milk you can substitute it with any other plant milk/non-dairy milk of your choice. Almond milk and soy milk also works well in this recipe, but you can use any milk of your choice as long as it adds a creamy, full fat flavour to the dish.
