The recipe calls for light coconut milk, which is basically half a can of regular coconut milk and half water. I just use regular old coconut milk since I usually have that on-hand.

I don't know how well subbing dairy milk would work flavor-wise, but I would say to maybe try milk first before using heavy cream.

Or you could introduce coconut milk to your staples and enjoy a world of curries and yummy soups :sicko-pig:
