NOTES
We recommend using Native Forest brand coconut milk, as it is unsweetened and doesn’t have any added thickeners. We also recommend using organic cornmeal. Strawberries can be substituted with any other berry or low fodmap friendly fruit. Blueberries and a drizzle of aged balsamic vinegar would nicely compliment this dish!
