Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is a tasty one-dish that you can make more or less spicy to taste. I usually use almonds instead of macademias b/c thats what I have around. I omit the onion but sometimes garnish it with scallions instead. The coconut almost melts making it stick together nicely. It definitely feels Caribbean!
