About Coconut sauce

Coconut sauce is a creamy, flavorful condiment often found in Southeast Asian, Caribbean, and Pacific Island cuisines. Made primarily from coconut milk or coconut cream, it frequently includes ingredients like garlic, ginger, lime juice, chili, and various spices to enhance its taste. Rich in healthy fats, coconut sauce provides a source of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which can support energy production and metabolism. It is also dairy-free, making it suitable for vegan and lactose-intolerant diets. However, coconut sauce can be high in saturated fats, so moderation is advised for those watching their cholesterol levels. Its versatility makes it a perfect complement to curries, stir-fries, seafood dishes, or as a dipping sauce. Nutritional profiles can vary depending on added ingredients, so homemade varieties allow for greater control over salt, sugar, and fat content.
