Cornmeal porridge with coconut milk

[Pepper]

I love the taste of cornmeal porridge with coconut milk, but have never made it myself. I just want to know what % of coconut milk is required to make this.

Do I add it at the end, or do I use coconut milk instead of water or regular milk?

Thanks.

mawning Pepper, if yu boil it with the coconut milk instead of water,i find it more taste like tun cornmeal,so here is my recipe fi dat

Cornmeal Porridge

1/2 cup cornmeal
6 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup coconut milk or 1/4 of the box of coconut cream
condense milk,carnation milk,sugar

place water to boil with nutmeg,cinnamon,salt and vanilla.
mix the cornmeal in a cup with cold water. stir into boiling water keep stirring thats the secret,you dont want it lumpy. boil for about 15 mins,on low heat.if its getting too thick add more water. stir in coconut milk boil for ten mins.
sweeten with condense milk,carnation milk an sugar to taste. maybe 1/4 cup condense an 1/4 cup carnation milk 5 table spoon sugar. enjoy
