For a richer flavor, use full-fat coconut milk. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a finely chopped chili pepper to the sauce. Garnish with your choice of chopped green onion, minced red bell pepper, chopped roasted peanuts, or toasted flaked coconut. Serve over jasmine or basmati rice for an authentic touch.
