Canned coconut milk is overrated for curry, fight me.

Tbh, I spent $3.50 on a can of premium coconut milk last week for a Thai curry and it was just watery and bland. I ended up using a can of condensed cream of mushroom soup instead and it made the sauce way thicker and richer for only $1.20. Am I the only one who thinks the fancy stuff is a waste when cheap pantry staples do the job better?

Nah, real coconut milk has that subtle sweetness and richness you just can't fake with canned soup.

Tried the soup trick myself and it worked way better than expensive coconut milk.

Mushroom soup just adds a totally different flavor though.
